Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I mainly post about my sewing projects, as I’m building a colourful and comfortable everyday wardrobe suitable for a working mum of primary school children. I really love African wax fabric, so that features heavily. I also occassionally post about family life in Edinburgh and travel. Hope you have a nice stay!

North Berwick (Project 52: 32/52)

After saying a couple of weeks ago that I probaly wouldn’t be wearing sandals again, summer has returned and we managed our annual trip to North Berwick after all!

Our NB trips are always structured around all the treats – we started with cake, had a play on the beach, had fish and chips, got ice cream and played in the play park. The photos are almost all from the beach, and I took a LOT of them. My lens/camera is acting up and seems to be stuck on one aperture, so it was hard to get the pictures to be dark enough in the bright sun and there are a lot of them with just one child in focus. But I’ve taken so many there are still loads of good ones.
