    Cuddles, I love the cat!

    Genieuk, love that bag! Is it a pattern or did you just make it up as you went along?

  • Love the makes for your DD Tiami. I bet the dress will look fine on. I made one from a pattern which looks the same shape. I tried it on DD and it was too big so I need to make the next size down.:huh:

    Tried to sew on the poppers this morning... I'll leave it till I wake up/get peace :D

    The Pirate outfit looks great on her, needs a few alterations to the waist coat but I can get that done.

    What type of material do you use with the spice blend? I remember making lavender pillows at school barely.

    the Little Man had a play on the keyboard and managed to report some of your posts for spam! I have "unspamed" them but just to prewarn you incase you get a message from the techies! He is only 16 months, seems he knows more about the computer than me!

    Sorry X

    Finally made another bag, I've had the pieces cut for nearly a week. A bit late for the summer maybe.

    That bag is gorgeous, I would still use it for autumn. I couldn't bear to put it away till next year :o
