WOYWW

 Good morning all 

These weeks are flying by. I can't believe it's my birthday week again.

This week I fancied making a few cards. Don't get excited you clever folk who do amazing things with card and paper. This is how mine started...


I love a bit of random patchwork. Maxine gave me a little box with scraps of pretty fabric . I used Bondaweb to create a sheet of patchwork by fixing the pieces to a piece of cotton fabric. Then I used a machine stitch to over stitch the edges before cutting them up into small squares.

These are some of the cards I made.

My other crafty activity began when Annie asked if I fancied making some of my Christmas mice for the Harry Johnson charity sale. 

Well I had a 'mouse box" in my sewing room so I cut out and dozen little frocks and felt pieces for the heads. Here are the headless ones ...  

Tada! Here they are finished

All our family have some of these which hang on their Christmas trees each year 

Well that's me for this week 

I will be back here in two weeks. 

Have a great week
