More felt finishes :)

Hello!
 
Firstly, sorry for not replying to the lovely comments that have been made on the last few posts, blogger has been playing up! I do always read all comments and try to reply to each one too so please keep making them! :0D
 
Last post I put up pictures of the stuff I had been making from my craft kits :) I have carried on working away and have managed to finish the her and string kit, so just the fox left now:
 
 
I really like the hedgehog, it came out so sweet, there are such good designs in the kit!
 
Whilst rummaging around in my room I came across the teatime cake pincushion (crafty nana) kit my nan gave me for Christmas last year and as I am currently in such a felt-kit crafty mood I couldn't resist whipping up a couple of the treats, here is my strawberry-pastry-shortcake-stack thing and berry tart:

 
Hehehe, when I look at them I feel peckish! :P I still have the piece of Victoria sponge left, I will probably finish that off tonight......
 
......Are felt craft kit obsessions possible... lol! :P
 
I hope you are all well and have lots of fun and exciting things coming up,
 
see you all soon,
 
Bye xxxx

Crafty kit makes :)

Hola my lovely friends!
 
Last post I mentioned the purse I made from the Crafty nana kit I got from my aunt. It was easy to make and I managed to finish it all in one day, christmas day, using my sewing machine, ready to use in the January sales to hold all my bargain hunting money, lol :P
 
Here it is, the bow wasn't part of the kit, I just added it for fun and to glam it up a bit:

 
And last post I mentioned the Paper and string kit I bought in John Lewis, in the sales, quite a bargain I would say at £7.50 as I have been having alot of fun with it. Here are my two woodland friends I have finished so far:
 
 
An acorn and a mushroom..... any good name ideas anyone? lol :0D I tried out googly eyes for the mushroom (not part of the kit, again just for fun :P) and I think it made it look cute. I still have a fox and a hedgehog to make too, I can't wait to have the whole crew finished, I will probably cut out the felt using the patterns for them later!
 
I will probably experiment with some different felt characters of my own designs when I have finished, I have had a few ideas whilst I have been stitching these little guys up.
 
I hope you all had a lovely Monday,
 
see you all soon

Im back, and a bit of an update :)

Hi  everyone!
 
I am back from my holiday now, I hope you all had super super happy New Year!!! :D Hehehe, I had a super time at Disneyland paris, here are some of the best holiday snaps:
 


 
These ones are of the Disney christmas parade :0)
 
My fave ride i went on was probably Space mountain on the last day with my mum, hehehe I thought it was going to be terrible so I was a bit nervous but it wasn't all that bad it was actually fun. In the shop I got a Tiana doll (from the Princess and the Frog) as her dress is my fave of all the princesses
:-)
 
In other news yesterday I went sale shopping and in John lewis I got a mini felt craft kit to make your own woodland friend felt toys, they are so suppperrr cute! The kit was by Paper and string, I reccommend checking out her blog/shop, all her felt kits are very sweet! I will post pics of my finished friends when they are done :-)
 
Soon I will also put up a pic of the purse I recently made from a kit my aunty got me for Christmas too.
 
See you all soon,
 
byeeee xxxxx
 
P.s. soon I will be setting up a page to put up pictures any of you lovely people send me of things you have made from any of my patterns or tutorials or makes inspired by any of my posts as I got a lovely pic of some mini octopuses from my patterns, too cute not to be shared!
 
Bye! :)
