Yesterday...

all my troubles seemed so far away.

Now it looks as though they're here to stay,

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly...

I'm not half the van I used to be,

There's a shadow hanging over me.

Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she had to go,

I don't know, she wouldn't say.

I said something wrong...

Now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday..

love was such an easy game to play.

Now...

 I need a place to hide away,

Oh...

I believe...

in yesterday.

PS: Many thanks to all the jolly nice folks at Vintage and Very Nice.

I'm forever sewing buttons...

pretty buttons everywhere.

I rarely buy them, they just seem to grow.

Do you have that problem?

I have a house full.

I have been trying to use them up.

A lucky button for exam season?

or is this more appropriate? 

A mutton button?

The girls were not amused.

 They were getting bored.

I offered them a button modelling assignment...

but they preferred pins.

I've been foraging for our 'garden fete' on Saturday.

The weather forecast is dreadful...

thunderstorms and lightening, very very frightening me!

I may need that panic button!

Crafty ways make risky days

but it's all worth it when you find 5 yards of kittens...

My sewing skills are limited so... bags, cushions or pinnies? 

What do you think?

Poetry in Motion

My little owl was feeling low

And so I perked her with a bow.

My ironing board was weary too

And so I covered it with blue.

The seagull's flying low today,

I hope he doesn't fly away.

My puzzle needed just a clean

And then wrapped up in polythene.

'Tis market time again, you see

And I'm as busy as a bee.

Gathering bits and bob's to sell,

Have I got a hope in hell?

You may have guessed my purchase new,

Let me show a little clue...

Crafty ways make rhyming days.
