Farbenmix IMKE in Janeas World knits! 

Topped off with a Janeas World Iron on velour..

CUTE!!

And a Farbenmix  OLIVIA!

Miss L clearly not too keen on modelling today!

Fabric is a MM interlock from my stash. 

In Miss L's hair, are two of the amazing "Citrus Pop" bobby pins the lovely Toni Coward gifted us.

 How adorable are these?? We all love them!

So vintagey looking, they suit Lil perfectly.

 

 Toni is clearly very talented, she is also Make It Perfect!

the designer of amazing sewing patterns!

Citrus Pop has a sale on at the moment, " buy any two items and receive a free set of mini earrings" 

Happy Saturday!

 

We all love a good Gawk....

I recently discovered Craft Gawker on my iPhone. ( actually, I think my 11 year old found it first).

How cool, I need never be bored waiting for our Chinese take-away again! I used to look at all those hip young kids- glued to their iPhones  , scrolling and texting..and think " get a life, kids". But, I have seen the other side, and it is pretty neat! Here's some sweet inspiration for Friday..

Love this. Adult and Childs Red Riding Hood cape pdf!

Awesome Glitter  nails!

Cool Pillowcase bag to make!

Incredible Mexican art!

Make your own clothing labels!

Such clever ideas, projects and people!

Jump over and have a Gawk!

There's a little Quilting Goin' On...

In the absence of an overlocker,  I have started on  another little project. A largish lap quilt for Lil.

I bought these pre-cut strips last year from Spotlight and they have sat and sat and sat....

I should warn you, I am not a quilter. I am led to believe that Quilters are very clever, precise people, with the ability to cut many pieces of fabric the exact same size. Sadly, that's not me. I am a bit too slap dash and hyperactive to stand still long enough to cut many same sized pieces. Plus I am terribly unco with the rotary cutter and always manage an injury! But I love these pre-cut ones and it is quite soothing just doing so many straight stitches!
