a peek

I hope you are all enjoying the weekend.I actually found myself yearning for school holidays today in the midst of assignment stress! Fancy that......

This is a little look at a couple of things I am getting ready for November.It will be here before we know it and there are too many things to get done.Grrr.My list is long and the days are too short it seems.

Stockings.Large enough for a puppy or a decent sized box of lego I think.

 I am really happy with how beautifully they have turned out.The embroidery I am super pleased with as this is a relatively new adventure for me.And linen.LOVE linen.

They feel lovely too as they are fully lined so the is just right.Lucky kids I say!

I have also been making stocking fillers for girls.

Big girls or little girls as I must say they look as good on my yummy Boden jacket as they do on a three year old.Not bad pinned to a flouncy skirt either.And the colours are like rainbows and candy.Delicious!!

This computer is playing up and I am having serious trouble uploading photos.I will put the stockings in the shop this week available to order and I'll pop some brooches in as well.I have been working on some mobiles too which I am loving- toadstools/man on the moon/its raining.Sooooo cute.

My (oops...'our') bedroom floor is strewn with piles of things.Branches,stuffing,hoops.tulle.Its like student days again! A boutique market and an art/craft show back to back.What was I thinking? Although I am secretly loving having a deadline.Bring it on!!

 Never have I tried to make so many things at one time ( throw custom orders in to the mix just to spice it up) and the house is showing it sadly.I was asked the other day if I had thought about perhaps doing some laundry.Why????Don't the house fairies come and do all that........do you think they will pick the kids up from school too............?

And because I can't sit and do nothing,I have just crocheted another cushion.Like we need one!!  I should sit on my hands.

Yes, where are those house fairies? They seemed to have dissapeared since my Brownie days!!!

Please don't sit on your hands, I love all the things you make! They also inspire me to keep creating, so please don't stop ;-)
