CRAFTUMI

No not some strange new language.

A fantastic new place for Aussie craft suppliers to sell their Supplies and Tools.

They can be commercially purchased supplies or handmade supplies but you can sell them here as long as you are in Australia.
Purchases can be made from within Australia or from International buyers too.

It is actually designed by the "Made It" crew who do a wonderful job of getting Aussie Handcrafted items on the web.

So go and take a look and support Australia a wee bit more.

Terriffic Tuesday



Feeding Cows in the fog

It's green alright, we have had heaps and heaps of rain but it's too cold for the grass to grow







We have 2 tiny Poddy Lambs right now.
They are only 4 days old.
My mother-in-law makes the coats!!!





Adelaide's quilt is finished.
I machine embroidered it using a lovely butterfly alphabet.
I made it using a "Funny Babies" charm pack and the pale pink around the fabric is Polar Fleece.
It looks and feels pretty good, especially for a baby but I will neve be doing that again. It was a nightmare to sew and I am so proud that most of my points line up.
The pattern is acutally a Table Runner pattern that I lengthened and put 2 side by side.

It is from a book by Heather Mulder Petersen in her book "On the Run"

AND.... Drumroll please....

Here are 2 sneak peaks of my very first ever Mixed media canvas. I will show the completed thing at the end of the month after it has been in a small local Art Exhibition that is on in 2 weeks.
