Bag


I finally finished a bag that I started weeks ago. It didn't really take me long to do at all.
I did purchase some fabric for it weeks ago, but wasn't totally happy with it so I guess that's why I was never inspired to make it.
While I was out shopping the other day we came out of the Toy shop and found a sale table out side the fabric store. I picked up a metre of fabric for only $10. So I was determined to finish the bag with the new fabric this weekend. I love the bag so much that I think i will make it again with the old fabric. Now i just need to take it out shopping!!!


Also I was very lucking again in Melly and Me's recent competition. I won first prize. I'm looking forward to sitting down and doing the stitcherys.




Thanks for dropping by


have a great day

Happy Birthday little man

I have been rather busy in the last month. I have made two birthday presents. One I can show you, the other I gave to my friend before taking a photo. This one was for my sister its a folder to keep all her things for ballet eisteddfod's in.






Grady turned one yesterday. I spent a lot of last week cooking for his party. I made green and blue buntings (I call them backstroke flags) to hang around the house. Charlotte was very disappointed when I took them down today.

I made special cups for the kids, each cup had a picture of them and their name on it. I also did this for the lollie bags. I then turned this into a treasure hunt. The kids loved looking for their own bags.


I made his cake the night before. If you look close you can see Charlotte little fingers have been into the icing.

Now I might be able to get some more stitching done.
Happy Birthday Little man
