Shabby Background

Has it really been that long since I have been on here... Life has been very hectic for us this year. I have had quite a few items published in the magazines and more to come in 2013. This in itself keeps me on my toes. Plus I have also been very active in two online magazines in the US as well. Oh and there have been some new patterns that I have managed to release.


All of these are available as hard copies and e patterns. 






 
 
Here are some of the projects that have been released in the magazines.
 
 
 

 
 

 

Some other things I have made......
 
 
 
 
 
This is what the sheep end up looking like.. they have cotton reel wheels.
There has been more things then these... but too many to list.

I am really going to try to keep on here more often in 2013... I think I said that last year as well. But Hubby is improving as each month goes by and my time may free up a little more next year. Well that is what I am hoping will happen.... LOL

One of our daughters was married this year so that was exciting for all of us......
I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a very safe one as well.......

I have been busy....

This is the bag I made for our granddaughter... she was 20 on Feb 14th......



I have carded the flowers I made over the past few weeks... I love making these.....

And I have been playing around with some digital scrapping and made a couple of new siggy tags... what do you think.......

I have been busy....

Once again I have been stitching up a storm. I have to now do some serious patchwork and get all of the stitcheries made into something.....

This one will be called Apple Harvest for obvious reasons...LOL



This next one I am calling I Love You This Much........ 


This one is called Playmates.....


This one will adorn the top of an apron......


And I also made these flowers...... 
Boy are they fun to make... I will certainly be making many more of these.


There are more stitcheries... but as they are being offered to the magazines I cannot show them to you.
Plus I made a gorgeous doll and once again she is destined to be in a magazine... so alas no look at her either.

Today I plan on spending the day sewing and I am sure to get a few things finished so pop back soon to see what I have done.....

I was commissioned to make a couple of library bags for twins starting school... About 4 years ago I painted a plaque for them with their names on it... and Mum asked if I could applique the Raggedies onto their library bags.


 These were a lot of fun to make and I think I might make some more....


Now if I am to get stuck into the patchwork today I had better get off here and have some brekky.....

Happy Crafting everyone.
