Fun day Monday!

Wipso ( Annie - the much younger sister) and I had another giggly "fun day Monday" today.
We were both busy dumfing (you know - needle-felting!).
Annie was making lovely little creations with her machine whilst I worked at a rather more leisurely speed with my little Clover hand dumfer.
We will show you the results later in the week I think.

I just wanted to say.....


The Valentine's Day shelf laden with pretty goodies is open in the shop - Sisters Crafty Creations - so pop over and see what we have made so far. Email me if you are interested in anything.


Thanks for calling by.

Finished by Friday -10

Welcome to "Finished by Friday".

At the end of the year I looked back through my diary where I listed all the things that I had made in 2012.
I was going to list them for you but I didn't want you to get bored!!!
Suffice it to say.... I had a busy year. Most of the things I made were given as gifts - knitted shrugs and hoodies, tiny frocks and slippers, dressing up outfits etc. I made loads of "dumfed" pictures and collages - some went as Christmas gifts and I sold a few.
The items that I sold helped pay for postage for the 400+ dresses Annie and I made for the "Dress a girl around the world" scheme. I still have a few left to post to Louise at Sew Scrumptious - the total she has sent off to Africa is over 2000 now!!!

So this week I have been focusing on Valentine's Day and I have made a few items for the blog shop.
We have a January sale over there at the moment so check it out if you would like to pick up a bargain!!

These are my offerings for this week...

I made fabric covers for a Windsor & Newton A6 Heavyweight case bound sketch book.
This one has a white felt cover with a pretty little embellished front.
I love the random combination of lace, beads, buttons and hand stitching

This one has a red velour cover embellished with linen, silk and lace bits and bobs.

The little linen zip pouches have pretty little hearts to match the print fabric lining.
I think they will make lovely little Valentine's goodie bags.
 

 

They will be in the blog shop after Monday so look out for our new Valentine's shelf.

Thanks for popping in to have a look at my "makes" and thanks for all your lovely comments.

See you next week.

WOYWW - January sale!

EARLY WARNING!!

These pretty little sets are a bargain!
They have been sitting patiently on our crafters' shelf in our Sisters Crafty Creations blog shop.
Annie and I had a fun day Monday morning re-vamping all the shelves.

We have a had a good sort out and decided to have a January sale.

So we thought our WOYWW friends should have an early chance to pick up a bargain.

There are 3 pretty sets like these - selling for £3 (Originally £9)

Also we have filled four pretty tote bags with useful crafter's accessories - pen rolls, desk tidies etc.
Each bag is selling for £10 (They each have about £40 worth of bits and bobs inside!!)
AND there are lots more lovely hand crafted items at reduced prices...........

if you want a few bargains then follow the link to Sisters Crafty Creations blog shop.


My table is piled high with fabric today.

I am busy with a couple of draught excluders and some pretty Valentine's zip pouch goodie bags.
It was such a wet gloomy Tuesday - a perfect day for crafting cosily in my sewing room.
I think Annie and I will create a Valentine's shelf in the shop so keep a look out for my finished items.

And lastly.....

These little primroses are bursting into bloom in my back garden.
A reminder - if a bit premature - that Spring is just around the corner!!

Happy Wednesday everyone.
Follow me over to Julia's Stamping Ground and join our happy blog hop!

WOYWW - Dusty meets Pinxie

Good morning all!

A pretty array for you to peruse this morning.

After a wonderful fun day Monday, little Pinxie came home to join her new friends. Of course Scruffy disgraced himself (See post below!). But Dusty seems to like our new pink and punky little friend.

So, here they are, sitting on my table with the 2 scented valentine hearts, a new little phone cosy and a cute little scented owl. You may recognise the felted sweater fabric in the pile below.

Today, I am hoping to create a few more items with my recycled sweaters - maybe a few brooches for Springtime to go with the heart brooches already in the blog shop.

Wipso and I have updated the blog shop and put lots more crafty creations on the shelves so do pop over and have a peek.

Just to say.... There is a fab "GIVE AWAY" on Jensters blog so pop over and help her celebrate her 50th birthday!!

Then nip over to the lovely Julia's blog and join in the mad Wednesday blog hop.

Thanks for calling in here - I love to hear from you all and I will get round to as many blogs as possible this week and see what you have been up to.
