A Pink Show and Tell

As mentioned in my blog last week October is a Wear it Pink Month to raise funds for Breast Cancer Awareness, the main day is 28th October  when every effort should be made to wear something pink. I love Pink as do a lot of my friends from Make Mine Pink.

Pink hand towels trimmed with print fabric and broderie anglais, tied with organza ribbon and a rose to decorate




 Miniature drawstring bag for jewellery, messages or just because...

Secret Pocket Cushion made in a pink heart and ribbon print fabric, the flap has a seed bead and pearl tassel with an organza flower at the point. The pocket can hold a paperback book or maybe a diary.
Also this weekend has been World Cardmaking Day check out Christmas Pie Crafts blog for more details and my offering? well had to be pink off course, a bookmark card suing vintage prints with that extra touch of glitter:


Have a happy crafting week Friends

    Your whole world is pink and rose-coloured! I just love the handtowels, your cushion with the pocket and that card is just divine. You're SO clever. Well done too 'cos you've been really busy and for a good cause.

    The cushion with the pocket is such a great idea - I'd have loved that as a teenager for hiding my diary. I love all your pink things :)

    Such a gorgeous pink range Caroline- the towels are lovely. I checked out the pinkies on your website and all very impressive. Well done - let's hope lots of money gets raise for Wear it Pink.

    Cancer awareness, always a good cause, and even more so that you are crafting from scratch for it. Lovely work!

    Hi Caroline and Shiloh. I see you have been really busy this last week. I love everything, but the secret pocket pillow is so cute! I loved your post below. I am the very same way. I seem to only be able to do OOAK work and thats what I love the most. I hope we all have a great holiday season with lots of new shoppers who love handmade gifts:) Have a great week!
