Mandy said...This is so cute, I would love to see this made up into a small messenger bag. :)

And who was our lucky customer #3000? And winner of $100 Gift voucher in the Crafty Mamas shop?

Kylie W!

Congrats ladies! Prizes heading out Monday.

Thankyou everyone!

Psst...

Every time the Crafty Mamas shop hits another 1000 orders ( ie; 1000, 2000, up to nearly 3000) I give away a $100 voucher to the customer lucky enough to be ie; #1000, #2000, #3000.

I reckon...tomorrow will be order # 3000.

I wonder who it will be....

SCRAP WORKS!

This week I am working on using some of the fabric scraps I have hanging around. I used to keep every little scrap but it got a bit crowded in my sewing area! Is there a hard fast rule as to how small a piece should be before you toss it?

Anyway..here's a few ideas I have found and want to try out..

Left over STELLA? how about a hair anemone?

 Tutorial is here at T Matthew Fine Art

Or a head wrap? I love these from Made By Petchy.

 And for Wovens...

Charlie and Lola style hair clips? Cute! From Mother Rising.

Covered button elastics and clips are so sweet... this is from Figgy's Studio ( some of their patterns are in the shop!) These would be great for all my little Stenzo and Hilco remnants..pretty!

And Babushka headkerchief? Clever! from Make it do.

And a Bad Day Bohemian headband? I need a few of these...from Gingercake.

Lot's of excuses to keep our scraps now!

ALEXANDER HENRY Give-Away

We have a nice little give-away this week...

1m of the Beautiful Alexander Henry 2D Blue Zoo woven! 

 Leave me a comment telling me what you would make with 1m of this if you won? I'll get Random.org to select a winner Friday evening.

Some Weekend Craftiness... Farbenmix and Fabric painting

We are having a lovely quiet weekend at home, so the girls finally got around to some fabric painting. These are done using Marvy fabric markers ( from the Crafty Mamas shop) and are just like textas- but are permanent on your fabric! Lots of fun to be had with these!

 White cotton long sleeve tee from good old Target...Lil getting into it.

We slid an old scrap book up into the tee to protect from paint bleeding onto the back. You could use a place mat etc. 

And the results? Beautiful! They did a few singlets too ( because who wants boring singlets??) and were very impressed with themselves. 

So what did I get up to while they were so busy...? 

BEALA! Currently my FAVE Farbenmix pattern...

BEALA is an oversized hoody, just perfect for winter over leggings etc. This is made from COLORADO, a knit from the makers of STELLA. With a peek of Robot knit for the hood ( thankyou Nancy!). I think I have just enough time to sew up another.... if I sneak very quietly...have a lovely weekend!
