Gideon Giraffe Bag...





Meet Gideon, my attempt at a giraffe pocket bag. It didn't quite work out how I envisioned, but still I think he's kinda cute. Not sure how I feel about the patchwork, but I have to give these things a go! Part of his body forms a pocket, good size for a small toy, library card, pencils....

Otis the Owl bag

A little project I have wanted to finish for a while, a little bag featuring this gorgeous owl fabric. The large owl is made from felt and his body forms a pocket, just the right size for pencils!

Sugar and Spice

and all things nice. All the babies around us have been born, and it was girls all the way. So this ends the constant bombadment of girls cards....for now at least!

Rainbow the pink Scottie


Meet 'Rainbow' my latest softie attempt. Really, he was the purpose to my last Scottie dog attempt, and is much cuter I think. After a self designed softie attempt that ended in the bin this week, I do not think softies are my friends. But my Big Miss pleaded with me for this one after the giraffe got the can, so here he is in a lovely pink and white bear fur.

So named by her. She loves him and he was bestowed the honour of a bedtime berth, so approval has been won.

The first photo attempt. Dontcha just love how kids take you literally when you say, hold him up for me??



With and without flash, as I am no photographer and I can't decide which is a truer depiction. A mixture of both I suspect. He really is quite little, about 9 x 12cm. The Big Miss was used merely for scale!

It's a girl card


A dear friend had her 3rd baby yesterday and I whipped up this card in preparation for her, as I new the little darling was going to be a girl. I am expanding out from baby shower cards now and I am planning never to buy a baby card again now that I have this cute little pram stamp! There will be a boy version to follow soon I am sure as there are 2 more babies in our little circle due in the next fortnight!

Finally, Pea Green Boat is online!

Well, sort of.... I have finally made a storefront and managed to actually list something on the madeit site!!
If you have a look you'll see it is the play mat I first posted about here ages ago. In the meantime a very dear friend bought the red one, so I have only the one listed for now, but I have the makings of another two ready to go. Plus about a zillion ideas racing around my head and itching to be created, if only there were more hours in the day! Standby for future updates.... and in the meantime, yay me for finally doing something I have wanted to do for ages.
