Linda fyller år. Linda är min äldsta väninna. Vi har känt varandra sedan vi var sex år gamla. I födelsedagspresent får Linda en väska med ett litet hjärta fastvirkat i botten. Sa att hon ska veta hur mycket jag tycker om henne. Och denna gången, istället för att direkt trycka på beställa-garn-knappen på datorn så följde jag Marias mycket goda råd och pysslade med vad jag hade hemma. Jag fick tänka om lite och virka väskan i dubbelt garn för att det var så tunt, men det gjorde bara att väskan blev lite stadigare. I sommar ska Linda och jag träffas och då ska hon få den.
Linda is having a birthday. Linda is my oldest friend. We have known each other since we were six years old. Linda is getting a bag for her birthday. With a teeny heart attached at the bottom - because she is so lovely! And this time instead of pressing the Order-new-yarn-button on the computer I followed Maria's very good advice and used what I had at home. Very satisfying. I had to make some changes and use dubble strands of the yarn but that ony seemed to have made the bag more sturdy. I am seeing Linda beginning of August and then is when she is getting the bag.
Vi åkte till Gilbert White's hus i helgen. De hade en Unusual Plants Fair. Köpte finaste pionen (Bowl of Beauty)- som en näckros i rabatten. Och luktar gott!
We went to Gilbert White's house this week-end. They had an Unusual Plants Fair. Bought the prettiest Peony (Bowl of Beauty) - like a waterlilly in the border. And it has a wonderful scent!

That bag is lovely, I am sure your friend will love it. Lovely flowers!
SvaraRaderaHi
SvaraRaderaFirst time visitor to your blog. I have the bowl of beauty peonie in my garden they are just beautiful aren't they. I always think its such a shame they don't last very long especially if you live in a windy part of the UK like I do.
Jättefin väska! Och jag faller ju som bekant pladask för sådana där hemliga lycklighetsskatter... Krrrram
SvaraRaderaI love that first picture of you holding the bag - it looks so stylish and glamorous! The bag is great, I'm sure she'll love it. And fancy following my advice! I've been doing some massive sorting out of the craft room this week, and feel like I'm finally making progress. I'm going to try to stick to my advice too and use what I have - might be a good way to be more imaginative and get some unexpected benefits!
