Mary you're not being a numpty at all the tutorial I mentioned in my post above was for the pink kitty. I will do some instructions for the bunny for you though:D

I did make the memory book yes I have made a few for friends and they seem to go down quite well I'm sure your foster daughter would love one.

The eggs are from home bargains I think they come in a netted bag and there are quite a few for £1

Love the bunny bag - wonder if this could be done so it looks like a reindeer ?
I've done flannel reindeers and reindeer choc.bar covers..........looking for something different this year:)

Excited to get started for Xmas makes for this year already - making sure I start early because last November I didn't raise my head above the parapet for the entire month! You lovely crafty ladies can probably help with something - on one other thread a lady had made facecloth puppies - has anyone got a tutorial to help make these? Nice variation on Reindeers for sale this Xmas or at the summer fayre - all my profits from makes this year going to Breakthrough Breast Cancer so keen to come up with some new ideas to appeal to people who bought last year!!

Mary i'm sure it can by just cutting the ears out differently to make antlers. There is a tutorial on my blog for it if you want to make one (or adapt one:D).

Here is my latest make. An Ipad case. This one is actually an order but i am going to make my brother one for christmas i think.

That fabric is absolutely gorgeous! Where did you get it from, if you don't mind me asking?

Nykied it is isn't it. I also have it in pink shades too. It is a Michael Miller fabric and i think i got it from www.fabricrehab.co.uk (beware this site is addictive and will make you drool lol) x x
