A week in my crafting shoes

Thought would do something different this week and take you through a journey of my crafting week, day by day.

Monday - Found some head bands and pony tail bands, not sure when I got them but thought may as well use up for the fairs this year.

8 X knot bow hair bands



12 X knot bow pony tail bands



Tuesday - Cleaning upstairs. It is official I hate housework with a passion. Knitting.

Tuesday/Wednesday - New project started and knitted 1 pair this afternoon, a cute pair of bootees/sneakers


Wednesday - A trip to M & S food, spent more than I should but so many goodies, afternoon more knitting.

Thursday - Matinee jacket. Bought the yarn for this but somehow ran out, panic set in but the supplier had 3 balls left of the correct dye lot. Got another ball delivered Saturday and after knitting like mad all done. The dark teal ribbon arrived today and looks good, had to order by eye as online but happy with how it turned out.


Friday - Bandanna for Shiloh, he was not a professional model and acted like a Diva spending most of the time sticking his tongue out.


Posted to Facebook and got an order for 2 within 5 minutes, now that is what I call productive advertising.

Saturday - Order for the 2 bandannas done, all packaged up for posting later today.
Blog updated all ready for Sunday and now the start of a new week.

Bows, Paperclips, Pegs and another knitted bodice dress

Been a productive week or two as did not blog last week but gave myself a mini home holiday. The temperatures have been rising again and could do with some rain to clear the air and help the gardens. Watering every day but tap water is not the same as rain water.

On the making front another baby dress, this time in lilac with a pretty flower fairy print



Now onto pocket money makes:

Flower pegs, ideal for keeping those papers tidy



Butterfly paperclips, no office can be without these



Glitter and fancy hair bows, on alligator clips


Lastly some travel sewing kits, perfect fit for a small handbag.


Apart from the dress these are not on my website but if interested just drop me  message via my contact details on my website.

Back to making some more owl paperweights, filled with rice and the perfect size for keeping loose sheets of paper safe.

Until next week, stay cool and have fun
