Brown Owls
Last night was my last Brown Owls meeting before i become a Mum of 3! I finished off my patches for my uniform and my bag through the week while watching some tv which is a very rare thing for me (the tv watching that is) but after messing up my JJ blouse i decided to give the sewing machine a wide berth for a few nights, my brain was too pregnant to function as it should!
Here i am before leaving for the meeting, wearing one of the only things i could manage to squeeze my bump into! My thrifted granny dress :)
The meeting was a great combination of stitching, sharing, gossiping, meeting crafty ladies, drinking tea and receiving beautiful baby shower gifts!!!
Thankyou Brown Owls!! I actually got a little teary, it was my first baby gift :) Baby will definitely be wearing the singlet to her first meet :)
I also managed to spend my Brownie points in the Brownie shop and came home with some vintage trims.
Check out more pics over in the Brown Owls Flickr photoset!
What lovely baby gifts! I hope all goes well and you will not be too tired in the next couple of weeks. - I just joined the Brown Owls as a (really) faraway member.

What an amazingly beautiful bump you have. Eeeek I'm very excited for you. Even from way over here!
Got my m-t zine this week. Love it!
Nice treats too.

Just wanted to say I have been admiring your energy - all that sewing and publishing and child rearing. You are amazing and I think it probably wise to have a little rest now little 3 is getting ready to meet you.
best wishes

You do look great and your owl stitchery is really really beautiful. Looking forward to catching up again with your tiny teenie when she arrives.

You look GREAT in that dress. Owl and other stitching looks fab too. For someone about to burst, you keep pretty busy - good luck
