I love it, can't go one day without a creative fix. I guess i'm seiously addicted, but thats ok it's a harmless addiction, is'nt it???????????????So for the last three years i've been browsing online, inspired & delighted by all the crafty sweet stuff out there.I,ve def got my favourites, so i hope its ok to post some on my blog. All you creative bloggers out there have brought so much joy my way for so long now so I do hope that any of you that happen this way will receive a little in return.
I've a few things on the go right now, new blanket for Sophie (daughter no two) she's in mexico right now,in fact has been since new years eve working in an orphanage, getting blessed & being a blessing. Will post a photo tomorrow when Lauren brings me her camera, she's daughter no 1 by the way who is also waiting for a blanket. Bethany(no 3) & Ella (no 4) got theirs last year, more photos!!!!!!
Have just finished this quilt for a workmate of my sister, it's for her football crazy son, all the red squares have an Arsenal logo on. This ones a bit closer, can you see it???? Apparantly the minute he got it he grabbed it with delight, donned his PJs & snuggled up on his couch wrapped in his new quilt to watch TV, don't know if it was an arsenal game but i think he enjoyed his new quilt experience. Who would have guessed some sewn together fabric squares, batting & backing sheet would have that effect eh! Made me smile anyway.
Almost finished a baby quilt, its a spot prize for local family fun day, i think it will be used for a bonny baby compitition, hope it pleases, another photo to post.
And my fav i am making 3 dresses for a dear friend. Her sister is getting married in 2 weeks & her 3 gorgeous girls get to be flower girls, princesses for a day. Anyway I've got one week left to finish the dresses for them.
Love to make wedding type dresses, heres 3 i made for Laurens friends wedding a few months back, thats my girl in the middle, what a stunner!
So cant wait to post more stuff and share some of my life & loves with you
God bless & lots of love Karen xxxxxx
