Crafty catch-up

How does 6 weeks go so quickly? All my new found 'I will blog regularly' resolutions have amounted to nothing. Anyway I have been crafting recently so thought I'd do a catch-up show and tell post!

Firstly a gift for my good, non-blogging friend Anita:




















A toadstool pincushion inspired by Karen and tutorial from The Little House by the Sea, some cherry stitch markers from an Etsy seller, a covered retractable tape measure, all packaged in a lined drawstring bag (fabric from Spotty).


A travel play mat for Anita's new baby Jack. Fabric is Michael Miller, and I quilted along the raods with invisible thread, which was a pain. I actually bought the fabric to make a play mat for Sam, who is now 18 months old!
































Some easy peasy ruffle tops for Maddie, fabric from my scrap basket.
