Eco Friendly



I have been embracing reusables, I just stopped for a moment and thought of all the things I use once and then throw away and I said to myself this is not good. Thinking cap on and this is what I came up with. Little cleaning pads made with designer fabrics and bamboo terry cloth so luxurious and so eco friendly, Bamboo is a wonder fabric it is anti bacterial, anti microbial, anti fungal and up to 60% more absorbent than cotton terry cloth. Use them for removing make up, applying creams and lotions, or as mini wipes for little ones faces. They make great gifts for yourself and for others, they come in packs of 6 or 12.

Wriggly Model



Don't you just love how children can wear all these bright colours. My model was a bit wriggly so the photo's aren't great but you get the idea.

A Little Progress



Well I decided on my quilt pattern for my boys quilt. Its from Thimble blossom and is super cute. I have chosen some great fun fabrics in strong colours. I have got other plans for my rocket fabric. I am making slow but steady progress and hope to have the tops finished soon. I have also been doing some secret sewing so sorry no pictures yet, be patient.

More Crayon Rolls





I have been sewing more crayon rolls the past few days. They are pretty time consuming and fabric hungry but I think they are worth it. Picking the fabric combinations is my favourite bit. Kids love them. My daughter asked which was my favourite and I just couldn't answer each is different from the next I adorable them all. I have some other projects on the go, more of them next week. Have a creative weekend.
