    :T:T:T Yes, that was them! Love them!! Im going to try and make some for sure although they wont look as good as yours or Kandis'. I seem to be a bit messy with my makes so they end up looking like a ten year old has done them! Doesnt help as we still live live in a flat so I have to do everything on the study carpet or in my sewing cupboard. :(

    Millie - If you load them to tinypic or photobucket then go into add an image on here (little box that looks like a mountain on a postage stamp) then paste the direct link from photobucket etc into the link space. Love seeing piccies!!

    I remember those fab cupcakes!! I think I might make some larger ones and stuff them.

    I was asked to do a felt flower tutorial and I have posted it on my blog, it was a bit of a pain as I can't quite get the formatting right and the pictures and words in the right place, rather frustrating, still getting to grips with blogger!

    Or you can just copy the IMG code (bottom line in Photobucket) directly into your message.

    Honestly, these are dead easy and effective.

    Kandipandi - thank you for following, I let out a litle yelp of excitement when I spotted I had two new followers yesterday :D

    I love when you actually get round to making something you refused to buy ina shop. No end of times I think ill make that but never do!

    Well... Sunday looks like the day when I'll be dusting off the Singer and getting my !!! moving.

    A rather talented artist mate of mine is hopefully swinging by to poke and prod the machine a bit and give me a few tips on getting going. Very excited. Have been collecting patterns etc and being inspired by all the fantastic things I've seen on here - thank you all for that!

    Will let you know what comes of my first expedition into the land of Stitch!

    Thank you Pootle :)
    Yes, it is the 1st time I have made a clothing item since school (boy was that a long time ago :rotfl:)

    The fabric was a pain as it stretches so not realy the best one to start with but it turned out ok and there were only a few pieces to put together :D

    It will brighten up the black dress and Im making a bag to match, now roll on Friday :rotfl:

    Well done Hart - it's great! Just think now you have mastered the first one, you can run up loads of them now in different colours.

    Thank you Kandi :D

    :rotfl:it might be a while before I make it again but then again it was quick to do, even with being difficult fabric ( I had to tack all the pieces before sewing)

    I like making my bags and Im slowly getting into the jewellery making too :D
