Skulls and Roses

Here are some pyramid purses for those who love skulls....

more t-shirts

here are a few more t-shirts I did up yesterday ..

Scrabble pendants

Here are some pics of some of my scrabble pendants, the cat and orange and pink spot one are made with fabric. Most of them are on 2mm leather necklaces, and some have silk cord.

Storybook gift bags and boxes

These are such fun to make, I have lots of old storybooks which make plain gift bags and boxes into something special. I think they are much nicer than the shiny printed ones. A good way of recycling old damaged books too, the ones with missing pages or bits ripped out!

New mugs

I bought these mugs today in town at Loot. I love black and white cups, perfect for my current favourite green tea I bought from Perth.

baby singlets

Here are some cute singlets for a little boy, they are all size 0. Holly picked the cow fabric and wanted me to make her a cushion cover. I also made a cool size 4 cow t-shirt where the cow is teamed with a bright aqua Valorie Wells fabric.

Drawstring bag

When I saw the pattern for this bag I had to try it as I love combining different fabrics for a beautiful effect with colours and patterns. This drawstring bag is an Amy Butler design and is gorgeous in brown and green with Joel Dewberry fabric and some other designer fabric I got in a surprise pack from the US. The bag is approximately 28cm square and the height of the handles are approximately 26cm. I've put eyelets in the end of the drawstring with a gold dragonfly and some wooden and gold beads, making this bag one that no one else will have!

t-shirts

I bought these amazing fabrics to use for patches on bags and t-shirts. I started making some basic applique t-shirts for presents but I'm afraid it's addictive and I can't stop. I can do custom orders for these and can email you pictures of the fabrics I have if interested. I love the vintage prints, and the guitars. (I'll upload the photos once the blogger website is working properly again!)

Happy Birthday Julia

These cushion covers are for Julia's birthday (my youngest sister), made from Valorie Wells fabric they should look great on her chocolate brown lounge!

Clothes for little girls

These cute elephants are for two friends who are leaving town (not another one!...) and the singlets are for a baby girl (hopefully she'll be born in the next couple of days!)

Painting for Isabella

this is a custom order canvas for a little girl's room with fabric yo yo flowers

Paper beads

I made a few paper beads last night and today made these keyrings for some keen Collingwood supporters! I also found some exciting fabrics today and can't wait to get them. They are from Posie Fabric shop and the designs are amazing. Looking forward to making some interesting pieces with the new fabrics when they arrive.

Elephant applique

This is a cute elephant applique I did on a size 1 t-shirt which if for my nephew Levon, I think he'll look really cute in it and hope I'll get a photo of him in it in return!

Lots of purses

I've been busy making lots of these purses the last couple of days. Some of these are now available at the shop at Cedar Galleries Artists' Village on the Bruce Highway at Benaraby. I just got a new shipment of some amazing fabrics and can't wait to start making things. I also have some new bag patterns including Amy Butler (the 'In Town' bags) so will be making up a couple of those very soon.
