Stitching is in the Air

Another week and not been very productive, funny how some weeks everything just falls into place. energy levels are up and one can achieve so much and others not a sausage. Have got to know Frimley Park Hospital very well after MIL was rushed there last Tuesday with pneumonia, what a pickle and walk for miles trying to find the ward you want. Anyway did get a bit of work done just hope now things have settled down next week will be more productive and my mojo which seems to think it is the summer break makes a reappearance.

Iconic Telephone Box Keyfobs
Now with a Big Ben charm and key ring attachment

Steampunk Time Purse/Handbag

I love the steampunk styling but with a pretty twist, however thought this fabric leant itself well to the jewellery theme flap with a watch fob.

  2. Very worrying for you both about your MiL - hope things work out well. I love your telephone key fobs - very snazzy. What a gorgeous bag - you do manage to find some beautiful material and I like the face you have combined Steam Punk with glamour. Hope you have a good week.

  13. I'm sorry to hear about your Mom, hope all is well now.
    Love the keyfobs, but the purse is wonderful. I think that's the best Steampunk thing I've seen. Most I wouldn't have (they are fun to look at but not my style, really). But THAT is really still feminine! Just gorgeous. As always, you did it right. :)

  17. your key fobs are great! i love the addition of the Big Ben charms - what fun!

    I hope your MIL is well on the mend - hospitals are not fun places to be at the best of times, i'm not surprised you have felt worn - hopefully you will recoup soon too - a spot of Sunshine would probably do the trick if we get any this week! :)
