My table today doesn't have lot to show really. The pretty vintage button tin has been filled with lots of vintage buttons ready to go on ebay sometime.
The pretty spotty fabric was a car boot bargain - I think it is laura Ashley - it has a lovely soft feel to it and may become little girls' jumpsuits - they seem quite popular again.
The cardboard box contains the 17 items of dressing up outfits heading for North Yorkshire.
Below are some of the "princess" skirts and cloaks which are now all packaged up ready to go.
AND lastly......... Annie was given a huge piece of dress denim which we thought would make perfect little items for the growing babies. So, on funday Monday, I made a little pair of jeans and a tiny denim skirt. Once I know they fit nicely I shall make another pair of jeans for the other baby in the family and two bigger skirts for his big sisters.
UPDATE- My view today April 4th - Snowing like mad at the moment -Walking cancelled then!!!!!
My view on Sunday April 1st
OK - let's pop over and see what the lovely badge sender Julia is up to in her Stamping Ground. I tried to visit as many desks as I could last week - apologies if I didn't make it to yours and thanks for all the kind comments. x Jo

Oh I hope we don't get any, we were sunny and even hot, but to day, although cloudy the sky is grey blue and it feels .c-c-cold! Have a lovely Easter, HaPpY wOyWw!

Eeek snow! None here thankfully, lots of lovely makes as usual from you. Take care, & enjoy peeking at the WOYWW desks this week. Zo xx 78
You guys have had the worst winter and spring weather ....we had hardly any of what we are supposed to have. the world's gone topsy turvy it seems. We had +20C yesterday with lots of brilliant sun. today...+17C but, the weatherman is calling for snow later tonight...hmmm...who can believe him anymore? He's lied all winter to us....
I wish I lived next door to you .... I'd have my jeans and two other pairs of slacks hemmed in minutes... but, instead they've sat in my craft room for months....wonder if they still fit me anymore? ...sigh.....
Oh your little clothes look soooo cute - brrrrrr don't like snow - we are snowless here in Liverpool but it is very cold - happy crafting - thanks for sharing ;o) Liz #45
That's bonkers - sunny one day, snow the next... We haven't seen any down here in Wiltshire, I hope it stays that way!!
Lovely little trousers etc - hope they fit well :)
Hugs, LLJ #7 xx
Wow, those cute ickle demin creations, you are SO clever... as for your view... I am kinda jealous that we didn't get snow... hope yours goes quickkly though x Happy Easter x
What a change in the weather. It has only been trying to snow down here in Worcestershire, but it is pretty nasty out there. I love your little dressing up clothes and denim goodies. Hope they all fit well. Technology hit again today and refused to print out the colour chart for the Aquamarkers - doh! Thanks for your visit today, and don't get stuck in the snow. have a good week. xx Maggie #9
Sweet little skirts...I love the bows.....Sorry about the snow....I've had my absolute fill of snow this year....
blessings,
Cindy♥
It looks like you've been very busy with sewing projects! And how fun to have wee ones to make things for. Hope your snow doesn't last long. Happy WOYWW, Laura #118
Icky weather, you can just keep that, no need to share. Love the princess skirts and cloaks, perhaps this princess should invest in a skirt and cloak combo. I would insist everyone coming into my office bow down. :-) Happy sewing and stay warm!
Great sew-er you are. Weather changes so drastically, it gives such a different aspect.

Fabulous work - love the thought of a button tin!!
Hello Jo, such a shame your walk was cancelled ... the snow seems to have skipped over us and landed everywhere else but it is still freezing here. Love the cute little denims you made and those dressing-up outfits are adorable - someone is going to have hours of fun playing with them. Hope you have a lovely Easter. Elizabeth x #147
I stopped by earlier, but something on your site froze my computer. I'm finally back and loving seeing the snow, something we've not had this year. Happy Easter and happy WOYWW from # 6.
Hi Jo! You live near the mountains! What a grand view! You've been busy! What sweet little princess costumes! Some little girls are going to be ecstatic! Patsy from

Love the denim ....not so sure I like your cold winters. Have a lovely easter.
Wow! Your mother nature is more off of her meds than ours is! LOL! I love the denim outfits! You are just going to have to get a jumble of grands in a photo together to show off! LOL! Thanks for visiting! Hopefully the snow clears enough to enjoy Easter! -Amanda x142
Gosh Jo what a contrast in the weather photos?? Thankfully we have not had any snow down here, not yet anyway!!
I am sorry I am a bit late this week!! Have a fab WOYWW and a lovely Easter, Luv Karen xx #173
The weather never ceases to amaze!! Keep warm and carry on! :) LOL

Oooh lovely clothes there and you had a lot more snow than us as it didnt settle here! Thanks for visiting me and have a great Easter - Sunshine Girl.
I'm so glad we missed out on the white stuff - it looks lovely on your photo but you can keep it thanks all the same.
I love to see just how much you turn out - you must be very quick.
