New cats!

I have just popped some new kitty-kats in my Etsy shop!

Red fish!

Woking with a lovely jumper at the moment which was not really wearable any more - makes some super red fish though! And some other stuff, do you want to see?

Crafting-life!

Sometimes, your crafting inspires others, and they join you in your creative space ... here is Mike getting rather sticky with some PVA and some really nice papers ...

While working on my dolls-house, I pulled out a selection that might improve Mike's magnolia Lampshade and it certainly got his creative juices flowing ...

I've crafted with Vicki before, and i enjoyed watching her work with these beautiful fabrics as I added eyes to cats and stuffed them ...

This is going to be a really beautiful cushion soon!

Have you picked up some crafts for those dark winter nights?

Collage and colours....

Remember my dolls-house-doer-upper? I had great fun Collaging it today, it is going to be quite the pad!

And the fish....

One fish, two fish, red fish - blue fish!

A happy new year to you and all the best for 2013. Any resolutions? I am going to try and do the daily blog again xxxx

Mousey REmake!

sometimes I get asked to re create and old favourite! To make mousey, I had to have the original accidentally forgotten somewhere and sent to me for patterning!

I worked with some soft velboa/minky, in the colours of mousey in his youth! And searched around to find the right eyes and nose, even copying the fact that his ears were not evenly applied to his head!

the cheeky tongue was fun to apply, and reminded me of a childhood friend I loved and lost, called Sandy-Bear. He had a tongue which was frequently re-glued, and as he dried on the mantel piece I would be desperate to have him back!

Finished mousey looks very dapper, and was posted off for a christmas surprise!

Here they both are, the old and the new - which reminds me, sorry for being AWOL in December, I was very busy this year, and it's almost time for a new one! All the very best xxxxx
