:T Thankyou great pics. I've had that book from the library before, has some lovely things in it:D Only thing was I returned it late along with some other books and it cost me a fortune in fines:eek: I could have bought that book off Amazon for what I paid in fines:rotfl:

stardrops we defo have the same taste in books! I got this one from the library too! :rotfl:

I've been looking at baby stuff since my SIL is due next month.

I've never seen those bandana bibs before - how cute!

Wow, you lot have really been nattering since I was last on this thread!

I have been addicted to this site - http://sewing.craftgossip.com/ - bookmarked loads of tutes for things I want to make!

I have made a couple of bits that I've added to my blog but I have run out of stuffing so the rest of the sock monkeys (which are already cut and stitched) will have to wait! :rolleyes:

I love that whole Craftgossip site - have actually won a couple of prizes through the links they find, well worth signing up to thier daily newsletter roundup!

GB are those your actual pictures of your actual things? If so I love your whole house!!

Had a look at all those Owl links and I have to say Hoot is by far cuter!! Although I do like the little egg cosy one!

Kandi, he's fab, he's just got personality!

Kandi I love him:T I say you can't beat a monkey with attitude!!:D

Kandi he looks grumpy! i think he just need's his mouth turning up and his eyes turning so that they're the same way.
I'd have givin him to my dad he's got the same pout.

sorry, i made him up myself. I said sortof how in a previous, very long(!) post () No381. I don't have a blog, just flickr, and a notebook... humm... i'll see... Oh, he's inspired by the 'American Primitive' style of sewing ornies, so perhaps you could google?

Ooh definitely do a blog. They are so addictive. Good place to keep all what you've made in one place as well should you have a pc melt down (like I do frequently:rolleyes:)

love the monkey, kandi - well done!
