Hello February! Happy as Larry with an armful of new fabric, bargain priced fabric, those lace fabrics were £1 pm 😳From local store @hansonsfabricsandcrafts Day made 🙌🏻
.
Big hello to new followers , let me reintroduce myself . . . I’m Ashley 👋🏻 a fabric and yarn obsessed midlife ‘gal’ 
Former air stewardess, costume maker and retail store manager. 
An empty nester with son at University, (he’s not too far away 😭) I feathered a new nest with 2 cats who live happily with our two dogs. 
My partner and I are keen on restoring pre loved vintage items of furniture lighting etc into unique pieces for our home. He does the hard work I draw the sketches and point at things. 
I post about my handmade life, sewing and crochet projects, our home restorations and occasionally the clothes and beauty products I wear and use as a midlife woman .
I find it very hard to be niche as I have too much to say! 
I have also been writing my blog Lazy Daisy Jones (link in bio) for almost 10 years. 
I very much enjoy connecting with other midlife girls on insta and proving it’s not just for the under 30’s . 
Leave me a comment if you are over 35 and any of this resonates with you Hellooooo x

Proud Muvva ! 
2nd year of his commercial photography degreeand a selection of my boy’s @jacobcramp work can be found in @pierjournal issue 2.
I think he takes timeless portraits. He only uses film and develops his own film too. I won’t mention what he thinks about digital photography ( 😳) 
He is also becoming an very good cook. He cooks for us when he visits. 
I can’t wait to see what the future brings for him.
