Original illustrations and stitched accessories to brighten your day!
Looking for lampshades?
The good news is, they're included in the 25 on 25 sale... but the you-need-to-know is that the turnaround time for making them is 6 weeks, so I can't guarantee you'll get your new lampshade before the end of the 2024.
Oops, I didn’t get a chance to to a Wednesday Felt Showcase this week. Next week, I promise!
In the meantime, I’ve been shopping for some new fabrics for making notebook covers and tote bags. My stash is growing at an alarming rate, so I need to remember that holidays are over and start sewing again! I would post pictures of the new fabric, but the connection between the camera and laptop is playing up today. 🙁
Anyway, I promise I’ll have made something new by the end of this week. Promise!
Also, I’m itching to do a giveaway over on The Sewphist’s Facebook Fan page. I’ve been promising to do it as soon as I get to 100 fans, but those last three are eluding me! So, if you haven’t yet, mosey on over there and become a fan. There’s a link at the bottom of the page. Go on, you know you want to. It’ll put you in the draw for a reusable notebook cover (two to be given away!)
Hello! It’s been a wee while, I was busy in the lead up to Christmas, and then I went away on a lovely holiday for 2 weeks. I really enjoyed myself road-tripping around the South Island with the hubbie. We saw some amazing things, including rare hoiho/yellow-eyed penguins coming in to shore for the night across a petrified forest! It doesn’t get much more magical than that.
I’m back home now, and raring to go for the new year. I haven’t made anything new for the shops yet, but I have been checking out what’s available from other lovely sellers on Felt.co.nz. Somehow I haven’t got around to making dinner yet tonight, so this showcase is dedicated to food-inspired craft!
So, there’s this new thing happening on Felt each Wednesday, where members showcase some of their favourite items. It’s called “I <3 Felt”, and I’m playing for the first time this week. Being a bit of a collector of notions, I couldn’t help but fall in love with this rose made from zips by zippitydooda, and I’ve taken it from there, with a collection of florally goodness from felt!
Hopefully by next week I’ll have worked out how to make this look all pretty on my blog. If you want to see it in the lovely Felt Showcase Format, check out my Facebook Fan page.
Here’s an idea: why not get all your Christmas shopping out of the way by the end of the first week of December?
With two great Craft Markets coming up in Wellington this week, it’ll be easily done!
There’s going to be a special pre-Christmas Craft2.0 at the Dowse on the evening of Thursday, 3 December 2009. Come along and check out what all the best, lovely crafty people in Wellington have been up to.
Then next Saturday, 5 December will be the kristmas knack market. The knack markets are a great fundraiser held at and supporting Berhampore school. If you haven’t gone along to the knack yet, you should. You’ll discover a wonderful community feel, many lovely crafters, great coffee, and the best darn paua fritters you’ve ever had!
I’ll be at both, with special stocking stuffer specials on my Notebook Covers!
