Welcome

As the song from Gilmore Girls says “So welcome to my little corner of the world”. It’s all about me and my crafting – focusing around my love for stitching and sewing along with anything else that catches my eye. So welcome, grab a coffee and happy reading.

Cupcakes

Hi Everyone and a big welcome to my new followers.

Just a short post to show off the little felt cupcakes I made earlier. They are from a book I had for Christmas called Made by me. It's aimed more at children, but has some very cute simple projects perfect for a quick make or for my craft fayres. The design just used stitches and felt for the detailling but I thought that a button could be a cherry on top and bugle beads would make great hundreds and thousands. So here they are. The fabric thay are sat on is a fat quarter I picked up in my local shop in the sale for £1.

I also started making some bits for a swop so hopefully I can show those to you soon. I've loads of ideas for this swop that I'm having trouble narrowing it down to focus on actually getting anything done.  I have 2 half started bits that I WILL get done tonight as I chose the pattern for January's biscornu yesterday and I'd like to get that stitched so I can share with you. 

Don't forget my giveaway if you haven't entered yet, Thanks to all of you who have entered, It's great to have your support. Whilst I mention giveaways, The lovely Threadbear has a beautiful travelling cross stitch pattern giveaway on at the moment, there are a few rules around joining in, but worth a punt if you are a stitcher. You can find her blog here.

Hope you've had a good weekend. xx

  1. Ooh they are gorgeous Kerry! And I agree- the button is a perfect addition! Can't wait to see the January biscornu! I finished mine this afternoon and am chuffed to bits with it. I'll hopefully put pics up later. VERY excited about the swop too of course, I think I've made all my bits... now to label them and find a decent box to post them in!
