While Harry sleeps....

Ok so I'm back to the normal run of things now and starting to design some new and exciting things for my end of year markets.

However today I found myself with a little more time on my hands as Master Harrison decided to take a 3 1/2 hour sleep this afternoon.....To some people it may not seem long but for me whom over the last 2 months has had trouble with getting him to sleep longer then a 1/2 hr at a time during the day...well to put it mildly it was a MIRACLE....

So what do I do with that time....sew of course.

I have been meaning to use my new wrist band pin cushion that I got from the lovely Fii from dearfii...It came in so handy as I was moving from coffee table to sew station to ironing board. And oh look there they were following me around. It was a match made in heaven...

Yet another buy from the Stitches and Craft Show Plain cushion covers and Fabric from CLOTH......

Ok so I'm totally in LOVE with CLOTH fabrics and today (while Harry slept) I whiped up 3 cushions for my lounge.... I also teaed them up with a Ink and Spindle fabric (the large middle fabric). The girls from Melbourne have a studio that I would DIE for and are every so lovely.

buy for now

Caught in a Stitch

Well it has come to an end and what an end it is.

(My stall at the show- My little "wonderland")

I had the time of my life and found myself laughing in stitches most of the day with some of the most wonderful and inspiring group of indie crafter's I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.

Being a newbie to the scene I found a group of ladies more then happy to take me under there wings and guide me in many wonderful and exciting directions.

I couldn't wait to see Audry and Maude as after having met them at the 2008 Stitches and Craft Show and the inspiration and guidance that they were more then willing to share, I just had to thank them and show them what I had been up to over the last year.

I was positioned next to Kate from Please Eloise whom I have been chatting along with on the etsy dust forum and she was a delight to met and I couldn't help but purchase a little something for my niece from her.

I must say I did support a lot of local talent and will blog about my finds over the next few days.

Seeing Owls

Well today I spent the morning putting the finishing touches on my baby owl mobiles and I must admit that I just love them.

Packed and ready for the show.

Harrison spent the morning tugging on the mobiles before I was able to get them into the bags. At least I know that they are baby & toddler proof.
Harrison was more then willing to help me take photos of the owls outside in the sun.

Not such a cloudy day

Well today was spent completing my rain clouds I have a large varity of colours however this would have to be my fav so far.

I just the Yellow and Blue tones together.

I have also been working on my bird cages and will have a limited number avaliable for purchase at the Stitches and Craft Show.

Only 1 week to go and so many more things left on my to do list.

Must get back to sewing.
