We have had some really windy and wet weather in Dorset this weekend, not at all nice to be outside.  Although Annette tells me they are having the worst summer since she has been in Australia, 28 degrees with thunderstorms - not nice. Hope you managed to sort your garage roof out Annette.

Thank you to everyone who responded to Lucy's plea for help and advice.  I have been forwarding emails to her all weekend, crafters are such wonderful people. Professor Peach from The Italian Job said " Shame people are not as nice as flowers" he obviously did not know any crafters.  (Tonys all time favourite film, he knows it backwards)

All our wonderful NEW Easter Ribbons are on the website - You can see them all HERE. A little warning - we are unable to get anymore of these designs, therefore stock is limited, once it's gone, it's gone.  Prices start at only 35p per mtr, you do not have to buy masses and masses they all come in 1mtr lengths.  We will be cutting for every order, so if you want 5mtrs it will come in one length.  If you were lucky enough to get into the "Easter Bunny Hop" Ribbon Challenge then you have been playing with these ribbons for a while!

I had no battle to take the this weeks photo of picking the winning number from the "Bingo" bag.  Mollie sat in the front office and picked the number, wish every week would be that easy!

The winner of this weeks Friday FREEBIE is........

Number 14 = Dorothy

As it is still rotten outside it must be time for a little bit of sweetness to brighten our day - Sweet Treat goodies!

We could all take a stroll around Carols sweet shop, but oh no it is closed.....

...perfect timing it has just opened! What a wonderful display you have put on for us Carol - super idea.

Carol has even made us a little cupcake bag to take our goodies home and a muffin card.

Charlotta had posted back her other cards....but....just....had to have one more play with the ribbons. This card is stunning Charlotta thank you for sending it .

Thanks for joining in with the challenge Carol and Charlotta, if everything goes to plan there will be more Sweet Treats tomorrow.

We have been having a few last minute wobbles with our exhibition stand - nothing major, we have lost the French signs!!!  I can reprint and laminate them again, but it's rather annoying, I bet you if I remake them tonight we will find them tomorrow.

Shall I remake or wait?
