    So far today I've made some cot & crib sheets from a pair of flannelette sheets, 3 sun dresses for DGD & a green & white top for myself, I just need to buy some new batteries for my camera & I can take some pics.

    Never let success go to your head, never let failure go to your heart.

  • Kandi, can I just ask how did you attach your flowers to the hairclips? Did you sew them on or use glue? They look really good, and even more so clipped onto the cards.
    Cos I don't shine if you don't shine.

    Danables well done on your blog i'm off to have a look now.

    This is a top i made this weekend for my little girl out of a pillow case and ribbon. I used the outline of a top she already has as a guide and then put some tucks and lining in and added ribbon and buttons.
