Look what was waiting for me when I returned from the Isle of Wight yesterday – my lovely new Cath Kidston iphone cover. It’s almost perfect, the only part I don’t like is that it’s branded with the Cath Kidston logo on the inside – thankfully it can’t be seen when it’s on!

Easy Living magazine had a choice of two Cath Kidston bags with this months issue. I never buy the magazine but did today-just for the bag. I chose the pop flowers print and have already used it to carry nappies and bottles for a trip out today! The magazine also has a 15% voucher for Cath Kidston and a copy of the latest catalogue. I’ve been a bit disappointed with their childrens clothes and complete lack of maternity clothes. However, I was really excited to see Cath Kidston iPhone covers! They come in four patterns: mini dot cherry, electric flowers…

I received a wonderful swap package from Claire as part of the Robot swap. She made three little robots out of the softest fabric you can imagine. Here they are sitting on my vintage bureau. They remind me of weebles – you must remember them – “weebles wobble but they don’t fall down!” Thanks Claire. We love them and they’ll look great on my toy shelf. I was very happy to read that Cath Kidston is bringing out a new craft book called Make, found via The Lark. Luckily we’ll be back from our honeymoon by the time it’s released…

I’m making very slow progress with my Dear Baby Jane block. Tonight I completed C-3 Rayelle’s Fence which was fun. I used some Cath Kidston fabric, I get twitchy if I don’t use some occasionally!

I couldn’t resist making the lavender baby tutorial I saw over at molly chicken yesterday. I think I still have a lot to learn about which fabrics go well together but I love it! I’ve used some Orla Kiely and Michael Miller fabrics for the body and stuffed it with some dried lavender I picked up in Totnes, Devon, before Christmas. It smells beautiful and I’m going to make a few for some friends.

new Cath Kidston duvet set, originally uploaded by Jennifer Young. How gorgeous is this pattern? I wasn’t too sure what it would look like in the shop, but it looks fantastic in our beautiful, sunny bedroom. I have matching napkins too, (but they’re not much use in the bedroom!). It almost looks like a feature in a magazine….

I received this wonderful ornament from Neele in Dusseldorf this week. It was beautifully wrapped and a real pleasure to open! I finished this last minute present for an aunt we are visiting tomorrow. The design is from simple sewing and was so simple to make. I used some of my favourite Cath kidston fabric. We also made some delicious gingerbread biscuits so I hope my aunt likes her handmade gifts. I even made a little felt Robin gift tag!
