In my creative space today (actually on Thursday):
- Cowies requiring stuffing in the box along with a prototype for a new design.
- Frida the hippo who shortly after the photo was taken became this
She’s not in the shop yet, as I need to take some better photos (which in this weather could be days away) but do let me know if your interested, I think she looks awesome.

Well this last weekend was lovely. Saturday was a long day of sewing, and on Sunday we went to the markets here and ate spinach and fetta Gozleme for lunch.
I have nearly finished the surprise, its at the editing stage now.
I pieced some blocks for my new couch quilt. I am using a honey bun of Wonderland by MoMo. I did take some pictures but the light wasn’t good enough. So I’ll try again tomorrow.
I finished some softies including Henrietta the pink Hippo
Henrietta will go into my online stores tomorrow morning.
I was also busy opening a Made It store on the weekend for Australian customers. It currently has a couple of Owls in it including this one
Anyhow thats enough shameless self promotion for now.

Despite having two sick boys, yesterday afternoon was very fruitful as they both slept for a solid three and half hours! This was especially good as Cadel has recently been dropping his afternoon nap.
I got heaps of stuff done…
laundry, washing up
And now for the fun stuff.
I finished this little guy, who once stuffed will be heading off to someone special.
I still haven’t decided what they should be called. Thanks for all your suggestions.
I finished the pink hippo.
And then thought I’d try a selvege pincushion which I finished last night.
I am truly in love with it, though don’t look too closely as its not perfect. I see more of these being made…
I have a massive weekend planned sewing and stuffing, and opening a made it shop. Hope all of you have a great weekend too.

Ps. Thanks for all your well wishes for the boys. Cadel seems alot better today, but Hamish is sicker, hopefully he’ll be better soon.
In my creative space today…
Sickly children watching the wiggles
A surprise! Can you guess it?
A half sewn hippo (the pink fabric) alongside a vintage pattern given to me by a thoughtful friend.

This week has been incredibly busy…
I just resigned from my job after being on maternity leave for 11 months
I visited this lovely store. They will be selling a couple of my softies, a brown owl (not the crafty kind though), and my robot.
I opened my etsy store.
And we did a photoshoot of my softies in the front yard (getting some strange looks from the neighbours)
All good things really
and to top it all off I have just found out that I will be able to go to Finders Keepers tomorrow evening while Dan looks after the boys. yay
