Mothers Day... Creativeness latest..

Happy Mothers Day!!

So what have I been up to... making quite a few bits and bobs actually! Although I did get my nails done yesterday(false ones) and then worried that I may not be able to sew anymore :s However I have jut sewn up a heart and I got on fine so I don't have that to worry about! Phew!

Pre nail sewing....

I have been making a Mothers Day bunting all week (secretly so that it was a suprise for my Mum)

To confirm - it went down well, she loved it!

Also been testing out some fabric pens...

I could get used to using these... they don't dry too quickly though I have noticed, also need a steady hand!

I also decided to make my four year old sister (well 4 and 3/4 shes almmost five you know - as I get reminded quite frequently) a pillow for her bedroom, I haven't finished sewing up and stuffing yet..

This first pic is of me cutting out the letters from some pretty fabrics... I bought my wooden templates in Hobbycraft I also bought some numbers too so they wil come in handy for birthday presents!

I wasn't 100% happy with the finished product, I thought it needed something in the left hand corner, however Grace said that she likes it as it is, so it is currently being sewn up and stuffed!

I wanted to add some buttons... I will see if anything happens between now and final product! I will add picture of the finished pillow on Grace's bed!

Last weekend I encouraged Mum and my Brother George to help me in my mass production of cupcakes so here is a couple of pics...

All of the above are currently unstuffed so that when there owners do realise that they want them(hehe future customers) they will be able to decide whether they want it to smell of not!!

If you have anything that you think I might like to make share your skills, I'm loving picking up new skills and spending hours engrossed in my sewing box and lost in my creative zone!!
