stash busting - I will use my mountains b4 buying more!

craftingmad

Well I am true to my word (for once!) and I actually knuckled down today and made some more items for the kid's school father's day fair.
I made:-


31 x Armchair Ref Kits
8 x Best Dad Trophies
11 x Notepads


None of them are my finest work but I'm sure at 50p each for the kits and trophies and 30p for each notepad, the kid's and dad's will be happy.


So I happy to declare a further 50 items towards my total.


That takes me to over 700 items made - I finally feel that my total may be achievable


Keep crafting

Ems, your stuff looks great, I hope you get through this patch of your depression soon.


I have had a go at writing a tutorial on my blog today as I made another ribbon blanket for my sister-in-law who is having a baby girl soon. I'm leaving my sewing machine until the end of packing so I might be able to get a few more things done before I leave.

Some great makes from folks as usual.
Emsloves mickey - my favourite is the rose card. I love the faded vintagey look.
Loopy - well done with the wedding things.
Craftingmad - 700 + things, wow wow wow
ziggy - what a lovely picture. I'm sure it will be appreciated.

My craft room is still a no go area Sofa bed arrived today for the other room - but it's damaged. It was quite a puzzle getting it round the corner at the top of the stairs, and it will have to come out when the replacement comes (it took 6 weeks for this one!) We've been told to use this one as normal until then. I think I'll have to move the rest of the furniture back in in the meantime, then move some out when the time comes for manoeuvring again. I have to make some fitted sheets for it and alter a mattress protector, so I need to get my craft room back!!!!

ziggy - Love the picture.
I made a drawstring bag for my Clover Iron attachments. Also a case for the Clover Iron. The drawstring bag goes in the case. Ribbon is from a recovered padded hanger.

Love the co-ordinating fabric covers florenceem. They look amazing




Well I have managed to make 29 Father's Day Tea Bags today which has used a few sheets of card and scraps of coloured paper.


Want to try and make the school 50 of them so will hopefully be able to make more tomorrow


Keep up with your amazing stash busting everyone

Oh no ems - hope it heals quickly and you get better soon. You sound as accident prone as me

Ems - hope you are okay.

I made a cover for my lightbox. My bead tray sits on top of it so that is covered too.

I'm not accident prone per se - been hit by a car twice, broke my elbow on safety floor, cracked my head open.....ok i see your point!
