New listings

I've added a couple of new listings this week which I wanted to share with you.

I've made a new Travel Art Case, made with Alexander Henry's Willow Grove fabric, mmmm, love that fabric.  What child wouldn't love one of these eh?  My next one is going to be more masculine.

Travel Art Case - £10.50


The other is this cute cute cute Moo Cow Purse.  I love this little chap and have already got a few orders from friends to make some more.  I've definitely got to make one for my little man too.

Monty the Moo Cow - £9


Feel free to leave comments!

Folksy Friday

Well this is my first attempt at a Folksy Friday.  Make sure you visit their shops!  I've got the beautiful mermaid in my bathroom so I can personally recommend Sascalia.

Selling my creations

I've done it! I've opened a folksy shop and am trying to sell my creations.

I've not been able to have my sewing machine out for the past couple of years as Jake (my little dude) just wanted to destroy it or himself with it. But now he's two and a bit easier to handle so I've got a tiny bit more time to myself. It's so nice watching him pootle about in the garden, chasing the chickens, whilst I'm sewing at the table with the doors swung open.

So what is my stuff all about? I LOVE fabric! My beautiful friend, Simone, sent me over a load of fabric leftover from her quilting and I knocked up the first Goldfish Bowl Girl applique picture and decided to make a bag to put it on. I sent it to Simone but missed it so decided to make another one for myself. It got so many compliments from friends and family I thought I'd try to sell one. And so my Folksy shop was born!


So, in between clearing up porridge, wiping noses, saving the chooks and washing up, I'm busy at my machine and constantly looking at my email to see if I've sold anything yet. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
