On a roll!!

check me out, two days in a row of posting!!

Here are some more pics of what I've been doing

Tie applique t-shirts for Mr Q-T and a swap (the pink one was for his bestfriend Miss T's fairy birthday party)


Miss T's birthday pressies - fairy skirt & wings and fabric shillouette canvas'

Upcycled Reusable Shopping bag made from an old shower curtain


Sz2 and Sz 4 matching flirty skirts


Oooops nearly a month since my last post!!

I've been busy churning through my list of xmas present projects, I've been sewing, knitting, making covered button magnets and various other miscellaneous items.

Here are a few pics of what I've been making:

a knitted beaded necklace for my Step-Mum

car caddy for my nephew

luggage tag and passport cover for my Dad

"Leafy Shrug" for my niece (kindly modelled by Mr Q-T!!)

a "Flirty Skirt" in sz 7 for a swap

a knitted lace bookmark just because



I knitted this hat for Mr Q-T months ago but never got a pic, I also hand dyed the wool (the first and only time I have)
and there is much more but I need to take photos still.

I can't wait for xmas to be over so I can just relax and get back to knitting and sewing just for fun without needing so many projects completed at the same time.  I think I'll need to be a bit more organised for next year.

X-man just can't wait for xmas to hurry up and arrive, every day he asks me "is Santa coming to our house tonight".  We did a video-message for both the boys from Santa last week and X-man was answering his questions and sitting them absolutely wide-eyed, I love child hood innocence!

I need to share a photo of our xmas tree too, X-man decorated it himself and he did a bloody good job of it, hardly any clumping of decs and the whole tree matches etc.

We're off camping over new year, I can't wait - no house to clean, no washing to do, minimal dishes - yay!
