Another Dougal dog! This one, Bertie with the patchy eyes, looks a little stunned and not terribly bright. But loveable, too, hopefully. I'm very fond of him.
For the past few months I have been thinking about craft markets, and seriously considering hauling my wares to Melbourne to participate. But suddenly! Adelaide is coming to the market-party:
-Bowerbird Bazaar last month was fantastic - really fantastic (yay, Bek!) We were supposed to be away (but that was cancelled due to illness, natch, so I didn't have a table), but I'm looking forward to the next one, next year. And,
-the Stitches and Craft show is coming to Adelaide in March. Exciting!
So there is plenty to think about and potentially lots of sewing to be done.
But the fun stuff will have to wait, because at the top of my mind is a stay in hospital later this week (urgh, hopefully a short one, fingers crossed). Things might be a little sporadic here until I'm back on my feet. x

Oh, he is very loveable!
I hope you are okay, and that your hospital visit goes well.
Take care x

Good luck with the market. May your hospital stay be short and your recovery speedy. All the best.

He is very lovable and I like those patchy eyes. I am sure your stall at the show would be a sellout in a matter of minutes with all the wonderful things you make. I hope your hospital stay is brief and it isnt anything too serious. Maybe you need to take Bertie-Dougal for some company, lol!

A hospital stay sounds nice for a bit of R+R!

Stitches is coming to Perth too - very excited, although I think I still want to trek to melbourne to see everyone elses amazingness!

Bertie put a smile on my face, he is simply adorable Fiona, well done yet again.

Hope you get well soon. I expect that Bertie would be an excellent hospital visitor - cheerful, companionable, but not too challenging.

Your dogs are so cute! Hope you are well again very soon. We've been having similar kind of aborted holidays around here.
Hope the Adelaide opportunities don't put you completely off the idea of a trip to Melbourne some time...

I *adore* that pup and hope that you will make a pattern for him available someday! I think he is cute enough that I might be brave and attempt to duplicate him. Oh and do, please, get well soon!
