preparations




This lemur will be finished Saturday by hook or by crook...
(hee, hee, hee, I know it's a terrible pun!)
Sorry for that , I am too busy crafting and stocking up for some big market events to think of quality jokes...this weeks big preparation is for the fabulous Brisstyle mumma and baby indie market.



I have been sewing and crocheting flat chat, I am surrounded by the sweetest little faces...elephants, cats, birds, butterflies...I will be bringing along all my new amigurumi creatures for older kids (yes, and adults), and for toddlers lots of 'hot of the press', (or at least the sewing machine) softies-no buttons or bits.


I am enjoying a burst of inspiration after running a school holiday monster toy workshop last week. It was good fun working with the sweet young folk...and they did a great job!


This squishy guy was made by one of the girls, she crafted him out of a well worn old striped shirt of mine in less than 2 hours- don't you agree she did an awesome job?!
Back to the hook, ciao

I'm in love with your lemming :) What a great choice of creatures to make. I don't think I've ever seen a crochet version. It's looking fab. Love those big eyes!

What a great stripy monster! How old were the kiddos you worked with?

The kids were from around 10 to 13 years old. A lovely group!
