'T' Bags from the 'T' Pot

At Last


Here is my long awaited Craft Cabin aka the 'T' Pot.
It is a lovely calm relaxing place where I can feel inspired.


Doors closed!


Doors open - still waiting for shelves
This is my first 'T' Bag made in the 'T' Pot.  A lovely reminder of summer sun.
Happy Camping.

Dotty Dog- Bag

This is one of the latest bags I have ventured to make and finally finished today! 
I made very similar ones of with pastel birds in bird cages and dots.

I ordered the dotty material especially for these bags, however, youngest child decided to 'make' something and cut a huge chunk out of the lovely dotty material (from the middle no less).  A very expensive day!  Managed to salvage some of the dots and this is the result.  Material is now under lock and key with a special child friendly pile in case a creative moment hits the kids.

Front - pocket lined with doggy print

Back 

This bag is fully lined and has a doggy print internal pocket and also a small 'phone' size pocket on the outside.  This is because I struggle to find my phone in any bag I own.

Hearts

This should be on the Kids 'makeydo' page however, it was a joint effort.

The hearts are appliqued onto material. 

It is called 'Thinking Hearts' but youngest child named it and I am not sure what it means.

This is now framed ready to go into the Craft Shed.

Pretty Pendants

 
Whilst waiting for the Craft Shed to be finished, I have concentrated on making some more pendants as they were very popular last Christmas.  These are more colourful and have either a matching glazed tin to hold the pendant or a pretty matching envelope.
 
These will be put for sale at my next Craft fair nearer Christmas.

You can never start too early for Shoes


Shoes

This is the first pair of baby shoes I have attempted to make.

The reason for the two pairs is that that I accidentally made two left feet!

They look so sweet, just need a baby to model them to figure out what age they are for.

My first Craft Sale

A Girly Fayre


Wow I am getting adventurous.  Last night my friend and I hosted our very first 'Craft Sale'!!

Imagine a Avon type party but with handmade gifts.   We set up a stall and provided nibbles and wine.  Friends and neighbours popped in had a browse, had a drink and a chat.

Lots of lovely compliments and sales so we both feel very proud.  It was very nerve racking though hoping people will like what you have made.

Here are some picci's





looks so lovely
