sewing, dying, knitting! I love creating, especially dying and sewing..oh and knitting..in that order haha! Don't really know what to write but these are a few things that I have made, dyed etc. My newest thing is the knitting I have just started to learn, I will add a pic of the wool I dyed and will add the finished product once complete.
The dolls, made from the chibi doll pattern, very cute I have made one for my youngest daughter and the other for the daughter of someone who was kind to me during a difficult time.
There is a blanket which I made for my Kai, also some nappies and a carrier :)
And a few things I have dyed.
Just thought I would add the top 2 nappies are made from the fattycakes pattern, and the third from my own pattern, which need a few modifications.
The felted doll is not finished yet :P

The gorgeous very hungry catterpillar nappy was made by Lesley at http://cherubskiss.com/

Long overdue update.

I have loads to update! Been doing heaps of sewing, dying, and gardening along side the time consuming job of being a mumma.
Vege patch is doing well, we have gotten ENORMOUS zucchini's, yummy beans, cucumber, corn, and strawberries. We have also learned a few lessons about what grows well and also position of the plants in regards to water sun ratio. Kids are loving getting involved and of course it tastes divine! I will add another post for the craft stuff as I am having a few drama's with my blog layout.

for Meg

Yesterday morning my friend asked me to make a pair of pants Like A's for her daughter. So here are some pants for Meg, luckily E is about the same size (E is taller) so I had a little model :)

We have pants!!

My sewing machine and I made friends today, at long last! I made this little pair of flares for my youngest daughter and I am pretty happy with how they turned out.
These were upcycled from a vintage looking curtain I grabbed at the op shop a while ago, and finished off with a fabric covered button :0)

~A special relaxing day~

Ahhh! Uni is finally over for my wonderful husband, and after a couple of weekends that were jam packed with study this weekend we have a great family day out. A leisurely lunch, a trip to Cooberrie park wildlife sanctuary a stroll at the beach. Here are some pictures taken on the day, we both took our cameras but within 2 minutes the batteries were flat hahaha...a little tricky to plan ahead with our sleep deprived nights. So the pictures were captured with a camera phone. There was even an old see saw, I couldn't believe it was still there! I had been on the same one 16 years ago!! Was pretty cool for the girls to have a go on the same one I had played on all those years before~they don't seem to have them at parks these days :(

A fun weekend activity =)

The girls and I had loads of fun over the weekend we dyed some tops and other bits and pieces, we all had a blast! Even dad got involved, now we have some funky new threads :D
