Phew.... last one of the oldies!  I'll try to take better photos of my work from now on!

 Personalised Little Girls Apron

The Cat In the Hat

The Cat In The Hat....

I made this costume for my son for World Book Day 2012

Handmade Toys

3 little monkeys jumping on the bed....

 I crocheted the monkeys from a pattern in a magazine (sorry, I've no idea which one or where it is now!) they were supposed to have Christmas hats on, but as this is one of my favourite rhymes, I wanted to make it come alive for my little nephew, so I embroidered the words onto the bag.  

 

With hindsight, I should have marked out the lines for even writing, but this was finished late at night with very little time left to finish it, so I just did it completely freehand..

 

 Travel Coloring Pack

 









A Personalised Colouring pack, ideal for car journeys or trips out.  I made this for my niece.

Personalised Wash Bag

 A washable, draw string flannelet wash bag lined with blue cotton to match the star, personalised with name. Great for overnight camps and trips away

 Project Bag

  A present for a fellow crafter - a project bag.  the handles pull the bag closed though a number of button holes.  I saw this idea on a blog, then created my own style, I am going back a few years now, so I can't link the blog I found this on, if any one knows of it, please let me know and I'll update.

 Bow Bag

I loved this bag, I came up with the idea in the shower and made it for my friends daughter, I had forgotten I made it until I found the picture I took just now! 

Christmas Cushion

On 1st December, I love to transform my home to give a really cosy Christmasy feel. I love to replace lamps with Christmas lamps and fairy lights, swap vases of flowers for wintery displays and this year I managed to make some Christmas cushions... well a Christmas cushion... But I do intend to make a star cushion to match, and some other festive cushions so I can replace my cushions at Christmas too

Personalised Cushions

I love to personalise my home with things unique to me and my family; my childrens drawings, photos etc and I love the idea of personal cushions... so I decided to sew my family on a cushion... Its a simple drawing in the matchstick style I always doodle in but really does bear a close resemblance to us!

Emily's Apron

I made this apron for my Niece for her 3rd birthday

Craft bag

I wanted to make something special for a close friend, who also happens to be into crafting, I thought a craft bag would be ideal... So after getting some inspiration from Running with Scissors tutorial, (http://projectsbyjess.blogspot.com/2010/01/school-bag-tutorial.html) I set about making my own version... which for a frist attempt, I was quite pleased with!
