Today I treated myself to a calorie free cup cake from the handmade markets. It looks so amazing,and I want to eat it...but it's soap!
Another treat. I've been searching for these pastel dunlop volley's for a little while and well, here they are! Cant resist pastel goodness.

predominantly pretty & pastel

I said I wouldn't buy any more fabric untill I had a specific purpose for it, I've said this many,many times...but I gave in. Again.
 Love these, especially the little trees. And the other two, well I'm thinking of starting a quilt of pinks and pale aqua, but first I really must finish off the quilts in progress.
 The pom poms and sweet blue birdy came from a $2 shop.
 What a cutie!
This week I learnt to crochet hearts from here. Could be a new obsession as they are so quick,easy and just lovely.
Afternoon coffee break. I didn't eat all the marshmallows, although I wanted to!
And what is a post without bunting lol! I made this for my friend's daughter. It will be the last bunting for a wee while as I am making it my mission to finish off all my other projects before the end of the year...and then look out 2012, I will be going bunting crazy!

Bunting, bunting...everywhere!

It's been awhile between blog posts due to having such a poor internet service of late. I have a back log of photos to put up, it has been so frustrating! But anyway, here I am with some colour, now there's a surprise lol!
 I made this bunting for myself to see what a white edging would look like, and I really love it. I adore white these days as it makes colours really pop and also looks clean and fresh. It is in our living room above our hallway entrance.
 Bright bunting for a friend. She has a little boy and a little girl who share a room so I tried to incorporate as many colours as possible instead of my usual girly shades. The kiddies loved it...I look forward to decorating a baby's room some day for my own child and of course there will be bunting everywhere!
Crochet is taking over my life! I have five projects on the go right now and with a bit of luck I will finish at least one of them very soon, so stay tuned! xxx
