Found this blog if anyone interested in more free tutorials etc. Its got masses of stuff on it. Dont think its been posted before but apologies if it has. p.s If anyone has that book I mentioned earlier by Amy Butler can you let me know. I dont want to bother getting it if its just for interiors. Ta!

Kandi, if you go to the bottom of the page of the link that sethsgran has posted and click on "Make it and Love it" its got jewellery stuff and some other links to jewellery sites. I think its an American site so you prob cant buy anything (maybe thats a good thing eh!) but might give you some inspiration!

Love that doll. Looks very complicated though. I wonder if I could get away with using calico or fleece. I guess calico wouldn't be stretchy enough and fleece maybe too fluffy.

The best fabric to use is craft velour, which you can get from Jan Horrox site

Does anyone know a good place to get knit fabric for t-shirts and kids clothes? I can't seem to find anywhere especially patterned fabric
I'm completely inspired by this blog but can't find good fabric!

Bunny - that's a great blog - aint that little one the cutest thing?

I started a blog yesterday and plan to put all of my makes and ideas on there, I am planning to use it as a bit of a stick to beat myself with as I often start loads of things then get distracted, a bit like a magpie, on to the next shiny thing!

I will try to keep it updated, feel free to have a look its in my links.
