Knitted Delights!
My youngest's nursery often had a toy sale to raise money for their lovely establishment and I always got very very excited! One of the Grandmas would always donate loads of woolen toys she had made. Whoever this talented lady is she is incredibly prolific! Here's what I bought this time (some of these are Christmas pressies - so Caroline....close your eyes!)
So much work - I love them - the details are delightful!



Don't forget the Giveaway!!! And a warm welcome to my new followers!

Christmas Pressies for my Girls - Kitty Bag

Well it's an attempt at a bag for my eldest. I didn't follow a pattern and now appreciate that perhaps sometimes you really do need one! But I did my best and as she chose the material, I'm sure she'll like it and hopefully not notice the terrible sewing!
Aren't these such cuties? 50p each at CB - nice little Christmas treats!
And this is a Marble Rose mirror that eldest insisted she had instead of the shop....hmph! Don't forget the giveaway! Hope you all had a lovely weekend.

Christmas Pressies for my Girls - Cats
I thought each week I would reveal one of my little, humble makes for one of my children's Christmas pressies. This means, obviously they're no longer allowed to see Mummy's blog!
So, here's a couple of little cats - my first attempt at a stuffed animal - and it was so fun - I could make a whole litter. It was wonderful to go through all my buttons with an actual reason! Then finally use some of the baby dresses I have been saving. The girls will love these, as they love cats, were very fond of these dresses and have a big thing for small cuddly toys - but since I have banned the purchase of any more (I'm talking McDonald Degenerates)- these should be a real treat at Christmas!
Don't they have funny little faces? The above was a stickler - it was stretchy material - I had to use tissue paper between fabric to get it sewed up. Very tricky - well for me!
Hope you are all well. I am going to a party on Thursday and guess who will be there.......only George Swooney Clooney. Yum!
