A beautiful lunch at the Raspberry Farm,.....

Today my mum and I met with my lovely aunty Christine at the Raspberry Farm which is located 5 minutes from Deloraine in Tasmania.
                          
                                Isn't the scenery just beautiful here......

                                 mmmm yum, my meal of savoury crepes and milkshake......

                              My beautiful Mum and Aunty enjoying lunch

                           We had a good chat and some laughs, and swapped presents too!

        I was lucky to get these pressies off Aunty Chris, I cannot wait to try the french earl grey tea

                                  

And of course how would our trip be complete without a trip to the Op shops in Ulverstone and Latrobe!!!!
      Perfect finds to top off a perfect day!!!

           Here is a gorg little sewing basket that I bought as soon as I laid eyes on it!!!! and it has of course been converted as we speak to a Crochet Basket as I can't sew to save myself!!!!

           I couldn't resist this downshot of all the little goodies that now call the basket a home!!!

                 And how could i resist this beautiful pink mohair blanket from an oppie that one of the volunteers themselves had made and just put out priced, waiting for mwa!!!!!!

Here are some gorg buttons from an oppie, they were new in packets, what a find, I found heaps of packets of them!!!! I have plans for these retro buttons already particularly to complement some crochet bags and clutches that will go on sale on ebay.

                     And here is my latest order in the making, here is the inside of the bag where I created a cute little pocket for the customer as I know she has a lot of special things that belong in pockets!!!

 The little button is one I chose especially for her as it looks just like her little dog!! I also decided to give her bag a keychain so she can have a special place for her keys also!!

                       here is the front of the crochet bag with its pretty flower on the front as the buyer wanted pink flowers!!!! Next I just have to stitch it together and post it off to its buyer who I know will be tickled pink with it!!!!!

                       
                                Finally I did some last minute shopping at Dragonfly in Ulverstone where I bought these beautiful bangles for half price, I was able to purchase them from another order I had just filled for a happy customer!!!!    inscribed on them is "Milan", Paris, Barcelona, Sao Paulo, and on the hanging heart is the words "home sweet home".


   also today I enrolled in my certificate III in small business and was having a good old chat with the teacher about my small crochet business who can't wait to read all my case studies on when I start handing assignments in, my first class is on Monday in Devonport, am chuffed for it!!!


                Till next post ladies, hope your weekend is gooI am planning a relaxing indoor swim on the weekend, maybe even a spa!! (and of course more crochet!!)
