Secret Santas

Well I have been a little quite ont he crafty front at the moment - with packing boxes, christmas and being in limbo...

I have however recieved some lovely Secret Santa's

Ingrid sent me a georgous little package, all wrapped up in a piece of material. It included some ricrac, three vintage patterns, some new and old buttons, two pieces of material and some yoyo circles. Ingrid you are a gem and I love them so very much.


I also recieved a beaded wire head band from another SS. (Picture to come)

I sent off tow SS's - The mystery one was sent to Marie and was a hand knitted beaded purse. I think that she likes it.

Marie and Ingrid - I hope that you didn't mind - but I have just coppied the pics that you have taken as I haven't got around to doing it yet.

A gift for May

Little May was born on Monday 4th December!

In true Kylie style I wanted to make her something special and I went a little over board!
I hope that her Mum and Dad like them.

To keep with the Australian theme I used Australian Prints to make up the ball!
And the little outfits are made using some of the fat quarter that I had in my pile that I have had for years (yeah - I finally used it!)
When we had Amelia, friends gave us an outfit in each size from 0000 to 0. So I have done the same. So she has something special from us to wear in each of the baby sizes. The white romper has a ruffle on the bottom - oh so sweet.
I cant wait to see pic of her in them - but I will have to be patient, cause she is only a wee one.

Congratulations guys - We can't wait to meet your little Gum Nut

Yeah My First Market!

I attended my first market over the weekend - it ran over two days and I am so glad that it was in the air-con as it was so hot outside.

I sold most of my stuff - which was great. The skirtinglet (the singlet dresses) were a hit and so was the reindeer food (Who should have known) Many thanks goes to my sales girls - you know how you are! If it wasn't for them I would have come home with heaps - apparently Reindeer food is guaranteed to bring Santa this year - even if you haven't been good.

I am going to get in the swing of things next year and plan to do an Easter Market (just have to find the markets in country Victoria)
