Look What's Growing in My Garden!!!

Spring has Sprung!!! 
Very Exciting!!!

So I have been batch making some things to get a little stock going of goods, I am thinking about starting an Etsy shop, although I need to do some serious research into how it works, what I need to do etc...
In the mean time I am trying to get a little stock of bits and bobs...

I hope you like my little friends, if you would like one then please contact me and I'll email you with prices...they can easily be customised with names or phrases on the back to make extra special presents!!!

Next Project my most ambitious quilt yet!!! Just need to get over my nightshift sleepyness so I don't make any massive mistakes!!! Photos to follow soon!!!

Enjoy the Sunshine!!!

Creations from Last Night!!!

SO this is all my creations hanging under my fire place, we don't have a tree yet, so thought I would start the festive feel with these decorations. Underneath are close-ups of some of the decorations and I'll put a quick How-to description...
This decoration is made with a base called a Yo-Yo, which is basically a disc of felt or material, stitched round the edge with a running stich, pulled tight and flattened out...

This Christmas tree was made with red felt, green embroidery thread and some lovely golden studs which cost 3p each, they have 4 tiny spikes on the back, you push them through and then press the spikes flat!!! they look great i think, and very festive!!!

More Yo-Yos, for step by step directions follow this link http://heatherbailey.typepad.com/photos/how_to_make_a_yoyo/hbyoyotutorial1.html

Finally another snowflake made with the studs again, really quick and easy!!!

And Finally, Lucy's Cat she made...her first attempt at blanket stitch and making felt things, a good job hey? apologise that my phone camera hasn't done it justice but it is black felt, pink eyes and stitching!!!
