They're so PRETTY when they're all brand-new and shiny.I do have another project on the drawing board, and I also am feeling the urge to:1. Make more little stuff - gloves, scarves, hats, etc (my Etsy store feels kinda empty)2. Make some how-to videosSo stay tuned....

I'm making another Forest Fairy Coat this morning. It's a big job.. it probably takes me 8-10 hours of work to make one, though it does get a little faster each time I do it. Less thinking. More sewing. Also, it goes much faster when I have all the components "in stock" and close at hand. It gets me thinking about big projects. How many ideas do I get that never see the light of day because the size of the project is intimidating? Even hoodies, which I've made...

Why would you have two books that are, in effect, identical?They don't look the same do they? But they are, in fact, the same cookbook. The one on the left is the American, original version of the book and the one on the right is the new, UK version.You can see that I have had my American copy for a while now, by the number of post it note bookmarks it has.There are certain problems with...

Last night's crafting night was making sock puppets!We used the directions I found here and then just went crazy... socks, pipe cleaners, googly eyes, foam, feathers, beads, glitter glue, and lots and lots of hot glue. Hot glue is the coolest thing EVER.We laughed and laughed at how silly they all were. I did one puppet with a black sock and one with a black and white striped toe-sock....

So, I finally got the craft room sorted out and most things onto the shelves. And yesterday I started on my first project.When I went to the big craft show at the NEC in Birmingham last year, I got some free pressed flower stickers for participating in a workshop.I had no idea what to do with them until I actually opened up a package and realised they came with a backing card that was the perfect...

Yesterday I showed you just before and after photos of the new Craft Room.This had been our eldest son's bedroom. Now yes, like most teen young men he wasn't too bothered about keeping his room tidy but please don't believe that this is all his mess. Since he moved away at the end of the summer, hubby has started using the desk in that room whenever he needed to do any work from home,...
