I seem to have been really busy for the past couple of weeks and not had a chance to post here, still sorting out the new shops and trying to get a sale!
The postman brought me a parcel this afternoon, what could it be? Well it was a fabulous surprise parcel from Laura, here's her fabulous blog So I opened it and here's what I got!
The bag with the cute ghost on is full of sweets, yum! I love the embroidered Green man cushion, what stunning embroidery! The Halloween humbug is fabulous too, I have the chart for that and hadn't got round to stitching it yet so now I don't need to :-) The bloodshot googly eyes are brilliant and the crochet sweet magnet and stitch markers are fabulous! Here's a closer look at them...
How lucky am I! Thanks Laura, you're wonderful!
So I've been busy making a few things since I was last here but I can't show you them! They are for a Christmas present and also the ami swap. The ami I should be able to show you this weekend as it was posted yesterday :-) Last night I made some Christmas trees for my shops,
They have little coloured buttons for baubles on them and turned out lovely. They'll be for sale this weekend in both shops. I'll make more of these but need more teeny buttons first.
Another thing I can finally show you is these crochet hooks I had made by the lovely Angela who you find here Polymer Clay Creations I had four made but one was for my fab friend Steph's birthday present so I had to keep quiet about it until now! Here's the three I have
Aren't they gorgeous! I can't believe they are made of clay and each flower is put on separate! You can order these at Angela's etsy shop and get them in any pattern or colour you like :-) Actually that reminds me I have something else to show you now, made for Steph's birthday that I'd been keeping quiet about! I made this bag with a cross stitch panel of kokeshi dolls.
I'm pleased to say Steph loved it :-)
So now I've been rambling on for ages I'll leave you, hope you all have a great weekend!
