I think it's turning...

I don't want to jinx myself here, but I think the tide really may be turning for the McGrory-Patton household. Jim is still getting job offers (can you see that swagger??) and his redundancy offer has  proven to be better than we had dared hope. I am also feeling a teeny tiny bit more hopeful about the future size of our family (just in the sense that I'm not quite as steadfast on the decision that we  made a couple of months ago). And the sun keeps shining.
It's on the turn, folks, I can feel it.

So, what do you think? Are we bored of yellow yet? If the answer is yes, then fret not, I've got some red coming tomorrow. But in the mean time, I do love a good theme (did I ever mention my addictive personality? Have you seen our Playmobil collection??) so here's the latest sunny offering.

I took the quilting a step further with this cushion by quilting the linen as well as the cotton pieces.
I'm really happy with the textural quality of the quilted linen. It's incredibly tactile.

I'm also still loving the combination of the hand binding and the plain linen backing.

It's in the shop  now.

Hi - I'm an avid daily reader of your lovely blog. Isn't the sunny weather great, brightens up the day.
Good luck with everything, and keep up the good work!
Loving the yellow and combination of fabrics :)

I just love everything you do. Wish I was rolling in cash and could buy one of each. Glad to hear the tide is turning. I feel it too! BTW - I tagged you over at my blog for a thinking award. Just fyi : )

I'm so glad things in your life are turning for better. We can feel your hapiness now. About your colours: I like yellow, I like red and I like any colour you choose because everything turns beautiful.

The quilting on the linen looks fabulous.

Great news all round :-) It is so good to read the happiness in your blog today.

I absolutely love the quilted linen. It looks wonderful.

I am so happy for you! I hope the turning keeps happening:)

I really like the quilted linen, it really looks good!

I love the quilted linen too. Glad things are going well for you now.

I'm so glad things are looking up for you all!

I'm loving all the yellow things you come up with :))

Ah, doesn't everything happen for a reason, and doesn't everything turn out just fine.
Glad to hear things are looking up and you never know what might be just around the corner.

I love the yellow (and yes I would have chosen the red bag to go with the outfit as well)

Sounds like things are looking up, brilliant!

just found you via glittergoods and i must say i love everything i see. great blog!

Lovin the yellow. But im afraid my Playmobil collection can beat yours any day. ..haha

Keep bringing out the yellow for a while longer please! But red's nice, so is blue, and green, and pink ...

I like the quilted linen effect. Good idea!
