    Bad news I'm afraid. Brentwood centre gave me the number for Aztec crafts who organise the stallholders, but they cant locate her details with the minimal info that I have :(

    Looks like I'm destined not to know how to make these beautiful angels.

    Angel lady, where are you?!!

    Hmmm, maybe if I post a finders fee, I may get some info:rotfl:

    Hi All, This isn't exactly a craft you can make but I know quite a few of you are Cath Kidson fans. Spotted this post on the Grabbit Board:

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2461171

    Half price Cath Kidson Knitting Bag, Sewing Kit and Knitting Roll at John Lewis's.

    May be nice item(s) to include in a themed basket?

    Sam, your doll is gorgeous. I love her!

    Just a quick check in to see what everyone is up to. I got very excited on behalf of you lovely people - I'm catching up on Outnumbered on Iplayer and in series 3, episode 2, it would appear that Karen has a sock monkey on her bed! :j

    They were really simple to do and I was asked for a tutorial so I have just posted one on my blog if you are interested:
