Here it is in the magazine:
DH saw it on the cover - I didn't even notice it down the bottom:
You can see I should have lived in the Victorian era:
Yesterday the Community Association of our local township (well, we probably are more a village than a town) held a Family Fun Day, celebrating our wonderful area. It was really well organised and lots of people attended. They held a photo competition and I entered two photos in the Nature section and won first prize for the Black-winged Stilt below, and highly commended for the other. As you can guess, I was very pleased!
And one last photo to finish. Gina very kindly sent me a photo of her lovely version of "My Pantry":
Don't you just love all those great fabrics?
I love seeing what you do with my patterns, so feel free to send me photos of anything you make of my designs.
I notice I have just reached 400 followers, so I might just have to think about another giveaway!
Hope you have a great week.
Val

Congratulations on your design in the magazine. That's always an encouraging feeling, isn't it? And you're a photographer too!? Wow. I'm impressed. Can you tell me what kind of camera you use? I may soon be in the market for a new one.
I love your table topper! It might be the next order I place! But I should probably make the heart and braid runner that I ordered first. ;-)
