Birthday bubbly

balloons-1.jpg

It was my birthday last Tuesday . I had a full-on day with classes back-to-back so I waited until the evening to celebrate.I was spoilt and treated to a glass of bubbly and smoked salmon by the canal and was over the moon  when I received a present for a six-week dressmaking course. I've always wanted to make my own clothes so it will be great to give it a go!
