I have to confess to a momentary 'what am I dooing KNITTING binoculars.!!! However luckily I came to understand that knitting binoculars is one of the more important tasks in life.......

Wow, great makes yabajaz. Out of interest, how much did you charge for your Santa chocolate bars, as it looks like a lot of work has gone into those, and I am not sure people will always pay the amount that reflects that. My daughter did Reindeer lollies and people only seemed willing to pay 50p each for them, although admittedly there wasn't the work on them that was on your bars!

i was reading this blog this morning
and wondered if anyone who does caft fairs may like to try this?

i decided to make some "baby bunting" this afternoon (inspired)
didnt take long and i think people may like the kits as a present
or even for themselves
i dont think they would cost much to produce

i'm getting myself organised for my taggy blanket. I've got a piece of red fleece to use as the front, some ribbon and other fabric scraps to use for my tags and a sheet to use to back it. All i need is wadding to use to make the taggy more 'quilty'. I'm rather excited although my mom is taking over abit. Which is abit annoying. Ive talked about some of the crafting i want to do and funnily enough she's now really into her crafting and wants to do alot of the exact things.

make the most of it
my mother just glazes over when i mention anything remotely crafty

when she comes we sit in here
and i have my workbench at one end
i always have something on the go
i'd like to talk to her about it, but she just changes the subject:(

maybe i am boring:rotfl:
