Charlies Blanket



Still working on a blanket for Charlie using a yarn pack from My Craft Life. He chose the colours himself and I wasn't sure about the bright green at first. Loving it now....halfway there!

Fairy Noella

I completed Noella for my Granddaughter from a pattern by Annie Smith Designs. I made a few modification to make it child friendly. Doll making is not my best skill but I am more than pleased  with the results.

Peg Doll Fairies

 
 
I made some peg doll fairies in the run up to Christmas with my students. They were great fun to make from scraps of fabric.

Folk Art Hearts

 
 
 
I learnt how to paint in this style at Craft Club in December. It is a simple technique and I think I will be making more of these very soon!
