Time indoors well spent?

As I watched Andy Murray do his best against the amazing Roger Federer, the snow fell in huge flakes from a leaden grey sky. Yet again, the hills are white over, as are the minor roads. A lethal coating of ice lurks beneath!

So, I have taken the opportunity to finish off one or two little crafty projects started last week.
My little decorated notebook covers were very popular at Christmas, so I have made a few more, which will be added to our blog shop shelves as soon as I can get together with Wipso.


This is one of my favourites, made with felted yarns and silk and embellished with beads, including a tiny heart bead.



I have also free machined my little silk paintings and mounted them in cards. I love the effect and will probably make a few more this week.



I know Wipso has been busy too, so pop over to the shop and check out her gorgeous poppy picture! You can enter our Gift Draw whilst you are there too!

    Love the notebooks - especially the colours! The cards are pretty too, but more delicate.

    I'm not surprised the notebooks were popular, they're gorgeous. I must get my embellisher out soon and have a play - I'll need to practice lots to get anywhere near your's and you sis's standard :-/

    I love the little note books. I wouldn't want to give them away though.
