Home made

Ok I made myself a promise , this year I am going to make presents for people.
I have done quite well so far.
As Becky is having a new kitchen I decided to make her accessories.
I started just after Easter researching . And came up with a shortlist I then saw on somebodies blog a notice board  that was made Friday night.
I still want to make some more thing slike a plastic bag holder and napkins .






I decided to go for two different patterns  and put red felt hearts on everything to link them.



I then took a photo of Em ( Becky & Carl's cat that is staying with us)  and made it into a card for her.


To be honset I think this was probably Becky's Favourite part.
Anyway if anybody has any other ideas please send them as I need to start Lizzies gifts for her new house.
Have a great week

Crayon Roll

Ok I set myself the challenge this year to try and make presents for people. So far I have made 1 ( with help ) and now I have just made my second.

Ok I chose these Three fabrics as they look good together,.



As I had no actual pattern I did lots of what if with post it notes  I did have various blogs to guide me tho.



The nearly finished item I say nearly as I decided to adjust it and put another tie on it as I had positioned the one in wrong place.



All I need to do now is make a mtaching card and buy pack of pens and there is my gift and the good thing is I have enough to make another one plus cover a notebook.
