Stained Heart Biscuit Tutorial
What an action packed week it’s been for the patterned folk! What with jaunts to Sydney and keeping our hands busy creating lots of new DIY ideas for you, we haven’t had much time to stop and smell the roses. Therefore, I plan to spend this weekend enjoying the last official month of Summer by heading outdoors and getting a good (healthy) dose of Vitamin D. I hope you all have a chance to do the same (should the weather permit!)! And the best way to start – checking out a fab round-up of what we’ve served up for you this week!

It takes the stress out of slips of paper, cuttings from bridal magazines, and foggy memories of all the bridesmaid dresses you’ve seen.
This app also works great for tracking other milestones, such as buying a first home, a pregnancy, and holidays. Find more info on the website.
