Emma's bag


It was Emma's first day of nursery today, so she wanted a little bag for her things. She picked out the material (light pink cotton) herself (small offcuts from the local textile shop) and decided where the ribbons and beads where to go. The name is just painted on using textile paint. The day at nursery went well and she was pleased with the bag!

Baby clothes bunting


My daughter was 4 on friday, so I decided to finally do something with some of the baby clothes I've been saving. I cut up bodies, sleep-suits, jumpers and trousers - all of which are now too small for them. Sewed the material into triangles then attached them onto a long ribbon. Didn't take long to do and it certainly made the livingroom nice and colourful for the party!
