Sewing machine cover

Making a cover for my sewing machine has been on my 'to do' list for a very long time and the other day I was finally able to cross it off!

 

These are my favourite colours and I love that apple print so much. A quick and easy little projectto satisfy the sewing urge.

pastel nail varnish love

The weather is warming up,it's just about time for flip flops which also means time for pretty toenails! But which colour to choose?? I might go with all of them!

cutest panda ever!

Still in the mode of 'small projects', I crocheted my first ever 3D toy!

 Ooooh, I adore him.

 I followed the pattern in 'Meet me at Mikes'. Way back when I bought this book I couldn't even crochet, so I looked at this panda and thought "no chance"...

 But here he is...there was no way he was going to be a normal black and white panda,hehehe.

Out and about, smelling the jasmine.

 

All I can say to anyone who thinks this little fella is beyond them, DON"T! Please give it a go. It is just one basic stitch and a little bit of increasing/decreasing....and patience. But it is so worth the effort, you'll be so proud of yourself! I'd love to see one of these guys on every crocheter's page.

Vintage sheet spring throw, Ta-Daah!

Like many of you, I've been collecting vintage sheet odds and ends for a while now... I always had a little patchwork throw in mind to showcase all the lovely purples and blues. But me being a bit lazy when it comes to sewing big projects, I just joined the patchwork top to a fleece blanket with some binding, all done by machine, no hand stitching here! I'm happy with the result, although don't look too close at the corners!

 The weather was warm today, Spring is in the air and what a perfect time to finish this floral beauty!

I love checking out other vintage sheet projects too, so please send me links if you have seen any cool creations lately ( or have you some of your own?)

New crafty supplies

Don't you just love getting new crafty bits and pieces! I have can't keep off the internet lately and as a result these lovelies arrived in the mail box today.

Pretty and pastel...I almost think I should just keep them in this frame!

 I think this is my favourite.

Oooohh, the ideas are flowing now!

Colour my world

There can never be too much colour in my life...Just saying!

Inspired once again by beautiful Attic 24, I began making a rainbow crochet bag....but as it grew I thought that I will probably never use it so it became a stool cover instead!

 The early stages.

 The finished product!

 Pretty colours.

A few 'issues' with my colour joining technique, but oh well it adds handmade character,right?

I've taken this colour obsession to a new level and behold...my new pink hair! It's just a bit of fun but I will be back to blonde soon I'd say :)

A rainbow filled life for me! xxxx

Another pastel makeover!

Yesterday was an op shopping day,YAY! I found this cute cane dolls chair squashed into the basket bin and thought immediately...I could do something with that!

 Add a lick of lilac paint and a few pretty cushions and here it is! I just wish it was adult size however I think it will be the prefect size for a Blythe doll....but that is another story!

I love these colours together the most.
