Sorry! Out of Order!

After my flying start - I've hit a brick wall!
My darling laptop is in the clink. Ok so maybe a little over dramatic. My Laptop is away for repair -it's been gone for just over a week so far- and *should* be back on Thursday!
PLEASE let it be back on Thursday!

So.... what happened to my Laptop?

Well. A Single Solitary droplet of condensation from my Icy cold Tanqueray & Tonic fell on to the keyboard! Then the G & the H stopped working! Its actually pretty hard to get by without a G & H you know! (I did try!)

Tonight I've managed to borrow the Mr's Laptop - Im very grateful but it is rubbish!

You can follow me on Instagram- Im Bevlar on there!


See you soon!

(I hope!)

Old Glass

It does just feel different! colder, stronger yet more fragile.
Its like holding a time machine- takes you back to being 7 years old clutching with both hands the tumbler as you scarfed down some ice cold kia-ora dispensed from the weird box thing out of reach at the top of the fridge freezer! No-one has those squash dispensers anymore do they!

Just a quickie!

I just listed 3 more items!
I KNOW!
THREE things (count 'em) in ONE evening!!


That's one of them! 8 Different styles for the 11.5" doll in your life.
This would give the 11.5" recipient a more sophisticated wardrobe than mine... but then that's not difficult!


Have a look at the others: http://www.etsy.com/people/SalvagePatch?ref=ls_profile


Ive had a real problem trying to gauge the price for these patterns- Its near impossible to make like for like comparisons for patterns within the UK, plus most of the patterns listed out there are either already cut or in fact PDF downloads. I've tried to be fair but we will have to see how things go!
Ill be listing the best quality patterns from my stash 1st and then there are a few pre-cut patterns to go on too!


See you soooooooooooooooooooooon!

so, we rolling

very.
very.
s.l.o.w.l.y.


I listed my 1st Item on Etsy! Phew I need a drink!


There was a lot of back-ing & to-ing figureing things out but I think Im there now. All except for the image quality is way too grainy in the main shot - All thanks to the low light level vs. iPhone4 conflict! - The DSLR is on charge and Ill rectify the situation tomorrow- but in the meantime at least I have something up there and we on the way!!


By the way, its a completely darling little baby blue smocked dress (age 0-6months)- take a look!





There's more where that came from too- just wait till I get faster at listing!!

that awkward first post

Will I look back at this first post & cringe? 
I do hope not!
Im >< close to launching The Salvage Patch through this my Blog and through an Etsy Store for Sales.
Keep an eye on that link- I promise there'll be some pretty things very soon!


Today has been a good day.
 I found lots of things for Salvage Patch.
I have been photographing stock in the sunshine
 & enjoying family life in the garden.
Back soon, promise!
