School Banner

What do you think? Our school’s P&C has a sponsor program & we display the business’s that partake in the program. I have put them onto the school banner (also made by me )

Doing the dishes in style

ok it is a mundane job & I more often than not let mine drip dry anyway unless I want to annoy the kids, that drive me insane, by insisting they do the drying. Mind you that leads to more insanity as I hear “hurry up”, “I did more than you”,” I had that one first……………..MUM……………” Sheesh no wonder I detest not having a dish washer these days!

Anyway just because they do a boring job doesn’t mean your tea towels have to be boring. I offer great fun tea towels in funky colours to jazz up your kitchen. Choose from Pink, Blue, Yellow or Green with embroidery of your choice. Happy to personalise towels with any name………..(put kids or hubby’s on there then they own the towel & have to use it) hehe.

Happy drying

A new bag for my laptop.

Remember back in October lat yr my darling beloved bought me a laptop for my birthday? Well I had an old bag soft briefcase from my partyplan days that it fitted in perfect but it’s boring its plain black & blurgh.

So today I finally did something about it I got out the paper, pencil, ruler & my brain to make a pattern that would fit my laptop. After a couple of hours I had the pattern all nutted out & the fabrics cut Then I stitched it all together only to rip it apart & start again.

But glad I did !! This is the end result

Art Time

My kids love being creative & I  think more kids should be given the oppornity to paint, draw, model with clay, playdough or whatever. I know it is messy but hey kids=mess LOL. Perhaps its because if I dont create something daily I feel blah & thats why I love it when the kids are being messy………..oops creative.

Once the server decides to play the game I am going to be putting these up on The Sewing Fairy

Anyway let me show you what I am going on about. Its my new Art Smock that I designed & tested yesterday

I am very happy with how these turned out, they have embroidered paint splats on 1 sleeve, which I digitised myself :), and a paint palete next to where the name goes on the pocket.

Will be making them in red, blue, pink & purple.

I have made other products for these girls & know they really are rapt when their name is on something as you dont find thier names on stuff you can buy ready made. They should get them shortly in the mail Hope they like them

Winged Creatures of the Nice Kind ;)

                                                                

Dont you just love these? They are romper suits for babies with butterfly or dragon wings embroidered on the back!!! They are part of my new range over at The Sewing Fairy. I can remember when my kids were little & they would be wearing lovely rompersuits with designs on the front but often they didnt get seen as bubs was being held up against me with their back showing. Now they can lok just as groovy from the back as they do the front :)  What do you think?

 

 

Until next time

Keep those nappies tidy

I am really pleased with how it turned out

Bathtime

Recently Anne from www.funkysoaps.com asked me if my crayon swag could be made to hold her soap crayons & what would I recommend making them out of.

I managed to  change the design to suit Annes needs & I made them from towelling so they will absorb the moisture & if the kids want to they can use them to wash with & I did red gingham on the back to give them some colour.

Anne was happy with the look & ordered some from me

 

size 0000 is soooo tiny

but as they say good things come in small packages!! Just like Eric a handsome young babe who had a rough start to life but is blossoming wonderfully now.

His Mum & Dad are great computer gurus & his Mum recently asked me to do a couple of onesies for him with specific sayings on them.

I reakon they turned out really well & cant wait to see pics of Eric in them

Crayon Swags enmasse

WOW look at this lot, 35 crayon swags all personalised for a childs birthday party. How cool is that?

I had a Mum contact me last week about this as she wants to give them out instead of lolly bags. I thought that is such a great idea. So I had a couple of days solid at them emb machine & this is what I turned out.
