Sewing Snowflakes

Miss E's snowflake costume needs to be at school tomorrow.
Naturally I left it to this evening to sew the handful thousands of fiddly sparkly snowflakes onto a white top.
My back is now breaking from being bent over double for the last couple of hours and my thumb is sore from where I kept stabbing it. But the top has snowflakes on!!
Today was not a good day in the non-shouting house.
There was shouting.
And apple throwing.
And tears and guilt.
Sigh.
We did manage a better afternoon: Turbo at the cinema which was fantastic and an hour in Costa with Mrs C and the boys.
