Competition Winner

I ran a little competition on my FB page last week, if I got 400 likes I would give away a 3m length of bunting.

Well, I made, and surpassed the 400 mark.  This is what I made Emily, my randomly picked winner x

Market Stalls

Went to St Albans market this morning, my friend has told me that there are fabric stall, well there is one chap, he is fantastic.  Got a few half metres, fine cord in red and blue and a pink/cream and black tartan type pattern  ... hang on will take a  pic

Hmm not a great pic but you get the idea xxx

Bunting, Bunting, Bunting!

Wow, I managed to get to the shops, buy the fabric and make the orange bunting today, it's now all packed up ready to go tomorrow, I amaze myself sometimes lol  I also put a little orange rosebud on each orange flag, just thought it finished it off.

The piccie is not very good as it was a bit gloomy today x

I ran a prize draw on my facebook page, a winner was picked randomly from "likes" and the pize was a 3m string of bunting.  A lovely lady won and I just waiting on her fabric so I can make her bunting ... butterflies and flowers, hope she likes it!

Also am still working on Sharon's orders, these are coming along well, amd tackling the backpack at the moment, I thought it would be a little daunting, but so far, so good!  Hope it does not all crumble around me now lol  I am using a tut from U Handbag just love Lisa Lam's site.  When its completed I will post some pics.

Well, it's well past my bedtime now and so before I nod off on here I am off

nite nite all

Nearly 2012

Well, we are nearly there, 2012 I mean!  I have had a tidy up and got my order book out, I have some orders from my lovely friend Sharon to do, and, oh no, that means more fabric shopping!!!

My friend, Claire, told me about a shop in St Albans, and oh wow! it is fabulous, thousands of fabric, more than you can ever imagine in such a compact space, and I found the exact one i wanted for Sharon's bunting!

I also picked up a couple of odds and ends and two cushion panels, which I shall make up soon.

I have been thinking about next Christmas too, and planning my makes: stockings, bunting and stocking advent bunting, I have seen this and I love it!  Got to have a go.  So even tho the Christmas holidays are still here, I am planning next year!

Boxing Day

Hello everyone

I hope you had a fab Christmas and got lovely pressies.  I got some lovely smellies from the kids and the Sew! Cath Kidston book too.  I am really longing to get making on some of the projects, and the free kit is a must starting point!

Enjoy the rest of your holiday.

Phew ... All Finished for 2011 (I think!)

The teachers gifts are finished, wrapped and given, I did however, forget to take a piccie, but they have a make up bag (the flat ones) and a matching coin purse.  Hope they like them.

I also make my last order today, a plastic bag holder/dispenser, type thingy!  It has to be pink, so here it is.

Not the easiest thing to take a piccie of, but you get the general idea!
