Snuggies

Even though they are not quite finished, Shelley and Rhette needed to snuggy under their blankies...

 both feeling a bit under the weather, and really, it's all a crafter asks for is her creations to be used, loved and appreciated.

 Here is a pic of the robot and dinosaur bunting hanging in situ.

And even though I'd love to get them finished, (and the purple one on the couch which is for my sister expecting her first baby), the mailman brought the horse fabrics to make my little girl's quilt.... and I'm going to try to whip up an original double sided quilt in the next couple of weeks - so that I can post it to Mum to quilt before she leaves (3000km from here) to drive here for a visit. I'm keen!

Better get a move on.... I'll keep you posted...

Well, I knew it...

I totally knew I could be addicted to making Bunting! It's just so easy to do, and requires very little thought process. It's also quick, so I feel like I can achieve finishes very easily.

 This is the rest of the dinosaur and robot bunting - this one doesn't actually say "happy birthday", so it can hang all year until he's a bit older... Perhaps a space theme next year will work well.

 And, as I finished those ones, I started babushka bunting.... I'm not quite sure who it will be for yet. I suspect another run to the local fabric shop to see what other bunting panels are there.

To be finished kid-free next week....

Aaaargh! me hardies!

 Rhette is off to a 5yo birthday party this week. It's a pirate themed dressup. The invitations were rolled up like maps and the edges were burnt. Pretty cuuute!

I figure Jaxon likes pirates, so I've made him this bunting as a birthday present. Oh so cute!

 I think bunting is going to be one of my new-phase-addiction thingys... I've already bought for 4 more lots of bunting... Oh my!

The caravan stash is clear out of ribbon - such a shame, I have 100s of metres of ribbon in the shipping container, it's only 3,000km away!!! Feels like a waste to be buying ribbon... but oh what fun I am having.....

Let it Sew!

Guess who has more room to move and can now get out the sewing machine? Me! That's who! 

 This is the first part of Australian Christmas bunting. I will need to add pom poms along the front, but those are in storage. They can always be added later.

 These Aussie Christmas stocking panels are spray basted. I'll be sewing those in the next couple of weeks.... first I need to finish some exams and then I'll be SEW Happy!

Loads and loads of sewing plans.... Watch this space! I think it's about to get busy again! Yay!
