Flower Power

I simply love flower embellishments. These I learnt from a tutorial on one of my FAVOURITE blogs -this girl just loves colour as much as I do and i learnt to crochet simply because i had to be able to make some of the things on her blog: check it out: http://attic24.typepad.com/weblog/

These i made to dolly up a skirt when I was madly dyeing my own fabrics.

The crochet flowers were sewn on to a plain pair of denims for a bit of fun . I was inspired to post these after a challenge on this blog:http://sewmamasew.com/blog2/?p=790

Mobile Swap

This is a collage of the mobile i received from Diane as part of a mobile swap (http://www.elsiemarley.com/mobile-swap.html) I took part in in Feb. (although i only got around to sending mine off in mid March...). I love this mobile- especially since we have so many trees in the garden, squirrels and even a white rabbit! Now a little red birdhouse would be really sweet...

Have spent hours trying to master Picasa and as usual there must be an easier way to do it than the route I am taking, but small steps...every try is one step towards easy blogging. At least the photos download much more quickly -just wish they would automatically download to Picasa from my camera. A task for another day. This was just trying out the collage option which i rather like -so here pictures of what we made for Easter.

Easter idea

This was the sweetie table at Robs' party last year: we had a bunny party so could cash in on the egg rush. This year it struck me that modified,it would have been a fun idea for an Easter table.
