Recently..........

Hello lovely readers!

I thought I would have a bit of a catch up post as there are quite a few random bits and pieces I wanted to tell you all about :)

Firstly was the bargain of the century I picked up last week.........................


The book only cost me 49p and it had some really amazing patterns in it!



I even found inside a project perfect for using my hello kitty buttons on, some little slipper socks :D


I am going to make the main sock and straps in this colour yarn:


Then for the rim of the sock (done in a crochet edging) I am going to change to white and finally attach my fab buttons. Im soo excited, Im starting them today!

Another thing I did recently was finish this little sushi cutie:



I call her RICE BALL!!! :) I loooovvveee her sooo much xxxx, I wish my real bento could be that cute! :3

The pattern is here for anyone who wants to make their own little foodie friend: http://handmadekittyblog.blogspot.com/2010/04/onigiri-couple-amigurumi-crochet.html

If you remember back to my blog tour you will know I gave away some little cookie buttons. The winner, Barbara, said she was going to put them on some dolls for charity. This morning I recieved an email with this picture of the dolls with my buttons :) They are absoloutely fab! and are going to be sent to children in Africa suffering with AIDS.


It is such a great cause and Im sure the kids will be over the moon with the dolls, well done Barbara!

Thats about it for the catch up really, Im off to start on those slippers and eat the cookies I made this morning......


They are toblerone and white chocolate, YUM! :P

See you all very soon,

Bye xxxx
