feeling proud of myself I am!


Ok this is the first effort of making anything remotely not flat and simple (ie curtain and table cloth) and I am rather proud of it......

It is a lunch box for my daughter Rosie and will when it is finally finished had a bag charm thingie on it. The inside is quilted cloth but rather than follow the pattern which says stitch it into the bag I am going to velcro it in so I can take it out and wash It when it gets mucky ( every day with Rosie) ( I may just make tw inserts)!!

I hope you like it..

and it continues !!!!........




Well what a week I have had my best friend and her family here all since friday and they went home last night taking my daughter with them to spend a few days with another friend. It has been great but hectic I really enjoy when they are here and never want them to leave I always run out of time for doing the things we want to do......... Like Helen said we fit three weeks worth of stuff into three days.!

Anyway I had an email from Marcea one of the subscribers with some images of the lovely work she does and attached are just a few of them.... also Bev has been busy again and we have the new kit for September and the images will be on here later tonight or in the morning.

I also have been busy sewing (yes me sewing) and I have well and truly been bitten by this bug....
I am going to open up my other blog to post on there the work I am doing...... watch this space...

more delightful images then mine as well!

This is a close up of blooms from one of the past kits with the small blue roses self adhesive from the paper roses in packets they are just the right size and are great to work with.
This is the full image of the use of the pale blue and pink blooms with a few cream blooms and againthe small blue and pink roses from the packets.
This one is a close up of the jasmine blooms in cream and the dark red roses with the stems just cut off and glued in the centre. I love this look and just cant get enough of doing this with my blooms. I have not included a full picture of this layout as the child in the picture is not mine and so did not want to publish his picture without the permission.



Jacque's card with the lovely colours red and yellow dont forget to pop onto her blog here to see the envelope and the inside of the card.
Well my team have been prolific again with making things and today's lovely card comes from Jacque again,

I have also been a busy bee and managed to do two layouts with my blooms and hope you like them.

We had a day out in Glasgow doing the museum's had a great day , came home shattered and crafted for a while.

Then today after having another day off yesterday going to see my dad, we went to do some more shopping , well a girl has to shop ( that is until the kids want more than you have)!!! we bought more units this time for the kitchen and then had such a giggle trying to put them together !!! me on the kitchen floor then moving the old unit out and the new in what a palava anyway its all in and looks puka!!

We have been sat tonight painting some little caddy's we picked up in ikea watching a horror movie (not my idea I have nightmares) ....... and we will post them when finished as they are in this month's colours.

Tomorrow is my last full day here and we are crafting crafting crafting , we are going to tie the kids up gag them and if necessary we will bury them in the garden!!! ooh should I say that on here.. mmm maybe maybe not! anyway whatever we will be crafting.
