One for the boy........

As a crafty mum with the "pigeon pair" of kids (one girl one boy) I quickly realised how easy it was to make and create beautiful stuff for girls and the boys get a little bit left behind. Thankful because of a great group of people i stumbled across an amazing tutorial to make something for Master F.

I went throught the blogs of http://www.made-by-rae.com/2010/01/celebrate-boy-in-february-2010.html and http://www.dana-made-it.com/ and discovered this awesome tutorial from http://punkinpattern.blogspot.com/2011/02/connors-messenger-bag.html

Honestly, if you are at all crafty or have even the smallest sewing bone in your body you need to check out this blog. Totally inspiring http://punkinpattern.blogspot.com/

So with that I made this. It is perfect him. It can hold 2 nappies + wipes + a jumper and even still has room for some cars or other toys. Plus as he grows and no longer needs nappies etc it will fit his water bottle and snacks etc too.

He looks so grown up with his satchel. Dang, I hoped he stay a bubba forever.

busy getting creative

I am still in doubt about whether I will do the Spring fair again. Maybe I will do another market. Or maybe even none. However I have still been getting as creative as I possibly can in whatever spare time I manage to get. I figure that if I can clean out my fabric drawer and sell it off then I can fill it again with new fabrics and THAT sounds like something that will make my soul sing with glee. Perhaps I will even design them all on Spoonflower. My Ozzy Dog design is already a hit and Oz loves his special place. Oh the possibilties.

Any way I have already made and sold a few items so With any luck I'll get to pre sell everything thru facebook and save myself the price of the stall. Here are some pics...

Ps. I know the resolution etc sucks but hopefully you get the drift
