Time

There's never enough hours in a day is there?  I have all this stuff I want to do and all this stuff I need to do.  Unfortunately need wins over want 99% of the time.  I want to paint, I want to decorate the house, I want to sleep til lunch time but in reality I need to make stuff for up coming craft fairs, I need to tidy the house (in order to have space to decorate) and I need to get up in the morning to make packed lunches.
Today though want and need are being combined.  The need to run up some purses and make up bags for the 3 fairs I have coming up is being teamed with the fact that I have a bag of new fabrics and a new snap setter to play with so fingers crossed the results of which will be on the little red sewing blog later today.

Beach treasure

It's been pretty nice here the last few days so the beach was the place to be and we found some treasure!  Well ok perhaps not real treasure but with a little help the boys turned it into treasure.

Haven't done anything with the sea glass yet but a stone shaped like a dinosaur tooth and a sea tumbled bit of pottery made it to the final cut for the boys necklaces.

Last night I............

Started another painting last night, very rough sketch, soon be time to start playing with colours yay

Wirey thingys

Decided after much debating with myself about trying another something (and telling myself no) to have a go at this beading lark.  Had a look at what was out there and decided the stretchy stuff and thread it on technique that seems to be favoured locally wasn't for me.  Then I spotted some 1.5mm silver plated wire!  Now that is fun.  I don't claim to have any great skills with it or anything, as with most of what I do I just like to play.

So there you have it, my first attempts at wirey things.  thanks for looking x

I think I've cracked it!

Some pix (hopefully)

A couple of the dots and doodles cards and my wonder woman painting, which I really must get framed as i need her on my wall.

Well......

Bags!!

So ........... I finally got a sewing machine, yay!  Didn't realise how much I missed messing about with fabric and just making stuff up.  I'm pretty rubbish at working with patterns so I kinda just make it up as I go along.  Here's some of the results....
