Wonderwall

When you read this, dear friends, there's a wonderful family-party going on. After almost two decades some ties were knot, some happy tears were shed and quite a few friends (and family too) were surprised. And as the journey to this day has not been the most traditional, nor is the celebration. There's no white princess gown, no veil or bouquet. Instead there is a beautiful black dress, some wine red shoes and a rosy-purse. Handmade that is, naturally. Diamonds are included - both in finger and purse. Traditionally honeymoons are for the bride&groom only, but this celebration is all about the family, so sisters, aunts, nephews and granma were all welcome, and we already are on the road to have a splendid weekend here, and there will be gifts for all to enjoy when we get there.



It's been a long yet wonderful journey to this day, and this is what it started with and I'll leave you with this weekend. Love from all of us to all of you and very merry weekend!



Yours,
Mrs. N

Oh Mia what wonderful news! Congratulations to you both, it's really very exciting. I can't believe you kept that a secret, I had to read the post twice as I was so confused and didn't see a hint of it in your earlier blogging.

Fabulous, all my very best wishes to you all. Bethx (the linen cat)

We decided to keep this as a secret (and it was HARD, believe me!) since we had very small wedding. It was wonderful, and just so worth it :)

Have a fantastic new week and happy crafting!

This time of the year...

Usually around this time, when children go back to school, and you can just about to smell the autumn, I start to dig deeper in my fabric...
