early bird

Made this little bird from the pattern on Lucy's blog Attic24. Sadly it couldnt stay with us and is winging its way in post. I am sure it will love its new home..

These were the Christmas felt ornaments the girls and I made for Christmas on holiday

stars and angels

These are the crafts I did with robs class end of last year

all buttoned up

Robs and I worked on this together as a thank you present for her teacher. I fiddled forever till the penny dropped and I worked out the quick and easy way to do this, so there will now be many more made...

many thanks

Of course its always a good idea at the time till its midnight and you are still trying to finish off the handmade thank you cards for the teachers! But got it all made and sent off...tick tick
