T is for terrific

the letter t, i made from a vintage table cloth for a friends birthday, i hope he likes it! if not i think i am quite happy to keep it for myself.

i heart vintage scrap journel cover, i made from new & used fabrics. i quite like this piece too

i heart tote bag, this started it's life as a pillow case, then i saw it had more use as as a tote bag in the same style as the journel cover.

as a creative person - i dont always like what i make, or i find it hard to photograph, or it just goes into the too hard pile, but the last 2 days of making & creating i seem to have been on a good thing. i really like what i have made this week. i feel like i have now found a style that suits me. (mum what do you think?)

nina's creative space

i can feel cabin fever setting in!!!

so our day went like this:

• we walked & rode our oh so pink, spoky doky, tassly, girly bike to the milk bar for an icypole
• i did a load of washing only to have it dumped on by a huge thunder/rain storm
• did the dishes
• cheese n bickys for lunch
• had a great cup of coffee x2
• made 8 necklaces
• made nina a shirred flower dress with collecting pockets (you know for feathers, pebbles, sand etc)

so while i was doing all this i kind of lost track of what nina was upto, she would wander in and out of my sewing room to collect cotton & buttons and stickers etc.......... she was decorating the tv! how fabulous! so the tv is wrapped in cotton & shirring thread, stickers & my favorite has to be the lavender pies she made out cupcake patties. but the best bit of all is that she pulled those glary tassel things off her bike, yes they have made a mess but at the least the bike isnt so princessy anymore.

and so now the car.............there is no car til next week GOD HELP ME!!!!!
