♥ Ceri makes... had a mini adventure to the sticks today to visit my lovely friends Russ and Amelie who are expecting their first baby in August. Not that I need an excuse to get crafty but I couldn't resist making some simple jubilee themed bunting for their jubilee baby! Here is the super cute London themed fabric I bought in the fabric haven that is the Wimbledon Sewing Machine Co...
Almost there...
The finished bunting...
Hope the baby likes it!

A family heirloom...
♥ Ceri makes... while staying with my Granny a few weeks ago she showed me this beautiful embroidered tablecloth that my Great-Grandmother had made. Thought it would be nice to share with everyone on my blog as so much careful work must has gone into it and the embroidery is so pretty. Granny and I decided it was a shame that it was tucked away in a drawer so I expect to see it making an appearance at New Hampton Lofts for the next family gathering!
We are a crafty family!!

Partridges Food Market...
♥ Ceri makes... made the most of the sun showing his face this weekend with a potter around the Kings Road with the girls, a gorgeous way to spend the afternoon. The Partridges Food Market was super busy with so many delicious treats on offer - olive oil, cheeses, street food, cakes, fresh bread ....the list goes on! The market is held in Duke of York Square just a hop and a skip from Sloane Square tube, make sure its on your London 'to do' list!
The delicious brownie I ate in the sun, yummy!

Style Africa...
♥ Ceri makes... loved the Style Africa exhibition at the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. A beautifully curated exhibition of printed, dyed, woven and embroidered textiles from Ghana, Nigeria and Sierra Leone. The exhibition runs until the 2nd September and is definitely worth a visit if you are passing through Birmingham.
