...and here he is!
LOOK at those LEGS! *sigh* he has a big brother and little brother in the shop where he was made. I don't whether it would be really naughty of me to buy another one......? would it also be naughty of me to have him in my home ALL year and not just in that brief yuletide period?
LauraFallulah has these adorable Matroyshka Fabric badges - an ideal stocking filler or gift for a teacher.
Pretty Pooch - always popular and especially so in Apple and Pink :)
Fun, fun, fun - it is a lovely feeling to have other people stock my products>>>> LauraFallulah has a link button on the sidebar if you want to see all her great items for sale.
But the thought of it played on my mind continually.... and then i DID make one! and i love him:) i love my pumkin head and i am sorry i didn't make one for you too.
Sorry i did not make you a Pumkin Head too Dot. Forgive me?
I made these today - and photographed them (despite the dreadful lack of natural sunlight)
And i made these: Gingerbread Cookie Hearts. Sold as a pair in chocolate brown shades and rosy pink. I am determined to make a huge Gingerbread Cottage this year and so i need to get some more delicious looking decorations...
The best feeling is getting a real 'public' reaction to new designs, when i get them out on the Craft Stall "Oooh, these are lovely" or "Oi, Jan, look at these. They're nice aren't they" Never a guarantee that an item will sell - but i can't help making more... I LOVE crafting x
Tuesday Musings.... thanks for popping by!
If you are a Mother then you know that photo above. You know that feeling of wanting to "stop the world". It can narrow around you.
Things can seem kindlier after a glass of wine but there is no truth in the bottom of that bottle.
How to view the world "bigly" without becoming overwhelmed??
We have a beautiful aqua / sky blue which has more green in it than this photo suggests....
AND, the reds are back! Most requested button of all. I know people have asked for 100's of these recently and i only have a few bags HERE but i do have more 'on order'.
Bless you all my button fans x nobody is more pleased than I to have these little jewels back again :)
... because the trees whispered to us when we went a'walking...
... because i have my boots on...
...because i have started wearing 'layers'...
I know it's Autumn because all the signs are there x
Happy harvests x
...and these were some photos from the sunny day my little mouse and i played with the Minnie Mouse ears that are featured in the 'photo'...
And how can you get a good sense of scale and size from the picture alone. I am not adding a ruler / measure to the picture as it doesn't add to the 'scene'.
This wreath is quite a large size but really, only the shot with my head in, shows it's size... so i have been around the house looking for appropriate hanging spaces with the right amount of light...
It is like a QUEST that never ends.
I love the possibilities that photography offers.
So, aswell as talking about the beauty and crafting of Autumn, i might start showing off a few decorations and 'how to's' on the blog, if that's ok....
Shaker style felt heart: red and white is such a winning combination for christmas.
Today, i have mainly been making Pippi Birds: and here are a pile of Pippi's in their various states of undress...
Some have had a few embroidered stars added. Some are still naked. Some have their feet attatched but many are still handicapped. 
For many people, Birds = Spring. Not for me. The feltiness and rich embroidery on these make me think of wooly socks and winter nights. They are a pretty adornment / gift anytime of year but i happen to making them now. I don't know if they are going into the internet shops yet...
I like the fact that my work means i can just 'sew what i like' whenever the fancy takes me but... there was a long list of needed jobs that didn't get accomplished today as i felt the desire to make Pippi's.

My BIGhearted boy!! He has been made for a wholesale order to a local shop. He might go in HERE or HERE i just don't know. I think it's nice to keep somethings 'just for the craft stall'??? i'll decide later. Nice tho ain't he?
And, a new Ellie went into HERE
So, like i said, no major news from The Pond - just a few bits n pieces.
