The hidden crafter.....

There's one in all of us..... but especially so in Sarah. Here is her Blog detailing her craft and the items she has made so far. I hope you enjoy reading her Blog as much as I do.

Shoes shoes shoes.....

It's basically what I've been making most these days and they're really popular!!

I'd never ever thought of making this sort of item before but having stumbled across a pattern a few months back now, thought I'd 'give it a go' and now I've perfected the making of them and they're selling like hotcakes!

I only use quality 100% cotton fabric for the uppers, they're lined and have a soft suede leather sole. I love these little shoes and they're sooooo cute!

What do you think?


Red and White polka dots......







Need a matching nappy cover?


And with ruffles, no less!









Thanks for stopping by and feel free to leave a comment :D

July


My apologies for being incredibly neglectful of my blog page. But, the reason is a positive one. I've been busily sewing and creating new items. Lots of ruffled nappy covers and matching swing tops have been the flavour and I really enjoy making these.

My 11-year old son has requested I make a shirt for him. He's designed it and he wants me to produce it... hrmmm a little designer in the making? He's a clever young fellow.

My almost 2-year old daughter loves mummy's new sewing room and is often found helping me by rearranging my ribbons and such to her liking. I can see she is becoming a keen little seamstress herself (she even has her own little kit).

Here is something I made recently and would love any feedback you may have.

Headbands


I've been a bit busy you could say. I have just finished off making three different styles of headbands.


The first style is the Aubergine Sugar Plum princess band.



The second style is Sweet Vintage Princess band.




The third style is Blossom in pink with seed pearls.


I had a lot of fun making these!

To The Ruby Red Raspberry

This is my first attempt at blogging so I apologise in advance if I mess this up.
I'm a keen follower of many a crafter's blog and dabble in a bit of craftwork myself.
Currently, I am sewing and creating beautiful things for my children and our home.
As a mother to 7 little Australians, I'm a super busy stay-at-home (SAHM) mum which I love but has its challenges also. I don't mind a good challenge though.

This is my first entry and hope to share many more as well as photo's of various beautiful items I have made.

Bye for now xx
