Good morning all - bright but cloudy up here today!
I am late getting my post organised today, so I am here at the computer in my dressing gown with a coffee (very unusual for me as I am always up, showered and dressed before I do anything each day).
So just a quick post with a couple of pictures of my table yesterday.
M came over for a chill out crafting day.
She has two little projects on the go - gorgeous bunting made with cream fabric trimmed with vintage crochet bits and bobs.............
and here she is with hundreds of fab buttons decorating little, pale grey, chenille cushions with a heartful!We had a fab day of crafting and laughter. She is a joy to be with and we make yet another great team.
Crafters of the world unite!
I am sure it would be a nicer place if everyone crafted together now and then!
Funday Monday was fun with Wipso too. We bagged lots more dresses from the gorgeous fabric Twiggy and Karen sent us this week. We then set to and made 5 dresses between us during the afternoon.
I made two little dresses from Karen's fabric ......
Both dresses look so sweet. Thanks Karen for the fabric.
I brought a few more home which I will be sewing later this week.
Right - now I need to post this and link to the lovely Julia's Stamping Ground. Julia and our WOYWW blog friends said such nice things about me and Wispo this week, I shall enjoy whizzing round a few desks to thank them for their kindness. See you soon!! x Jo
Love bunting - it's always so happy and little dresses? Heart-stoppers every time I think!
ReplyDeleteI also have a Dutch pretties parcel giveaway on my blog today if you fancy some colour!
Thanks for sharing your WOYWW desk today,

ReplyDeleteThose dresses make me smile when I see them each week! I love having crafty visitors! It is always so fun to play and share! Thanks for the fabulous peek at WOYWW- Amanda
ReplyDeleteYour little extra touches like the trims/pockets make all the difference to these pretty dresses. I can see some little girl loving them xxxx
ReplyDeletegreat looking dresses! Love all the extra touches you two are doing with them. My daughter comes over frequently and we have a lot of fun an laughs when we craft too. I tell her she keeps me young! Thanks for sharing. Vickie

Love bunting too - looks so cute and is fun and easy to make. The dresses are so cute - a great skill is dressmaking! My Mum used to do it when we were kids and of course we hated it then, now it's a much sought after skill...!!! Enjoy WOYWW!

Your dresses are really pretty especially the yellow one. Keep up the good work. I have jumped on the band wagon as I have some dresses of mine that I no long wear that will make into some super little ones. Hugs Mrs A. #85.

Lovely bunting - I'm hoping that, with all the lovely vintage bits and bobs on it, it will only be hung indoors! The dresses are as always little stunners. Here's to another good week for you. Elizabeth x #60

What did you do to your sister?
ReplyDeleteLovely projects going on there! How did you two manage to be next to each other then? Synchronised postings?
Beautiful bunting your daughter is making and so nice that you have a crafty pal in her too. Love the little dresses you and Wipso are making, well done to both of you.

Bunting and dresses are so lovely. Anne x
ReplyDeleteI am convinced if the looters mothers had taught them how to make things they would have less desire to steal...
ReplyDeletemaking stuff together should be mandatory,
that bunting is going to be very lovely
