Sssh.....don't tell SH I got a parcel in the mail today. Even though it isn't in the budget I bought a pattern. I saw these little 'lucky' owls made up on Cardygirl's blog and thought they would be perfect for the year 12 girls at the boarding house as a gift before exams. I can't wait to make them and think I may steer away from the traditional Japanese fabrics and go for brights and spots etc. It seemed a shame to buy just one pattern so I bought a sashiko sampler and some red thread to stitch it with as well. Oh I am looking forward to the weekend!!! Just wish I wasn't on boarding house duty!!
