Rolled Hem....

When I took on the job of costume co-ordinator for our school musical production - Sheik, Rattle n Roll , I had no idea of what was ahead of me.

There are about 130 kids involved and we are on the count down to opening night.

20 days to go.

Along the way I have found new skills and refined old ones.

All in all it has been a great learning curve and I can't wait to see it all on stage.

Today I got the hang of roll hemming on an overlocker on these satin headscarves.

Jingle Bells

Today I finished off some crochet hats

I just love this Christmas one

A Denim coloured newsboy

Lightweight and feminine, perfect for spring

Teal and Gray Beanie that is just a little Chic

I promised to show you my little creation....So

He is a little bit Shy

C'mon little guy, it's ok - these guys are friends they just want to take a peek at you

There you go -

I am really pleased with how he turned out - After seeing Despicable Me in 3D during the week my girls just loved the little Minions

Perhaps there could be an army of minions at my next market -

What do you think?

Minion........

1. An obsequious follower or dependent; a sycophant.

2. A subordinate official, especially a servile one.

3. One who is highly esteemed or favored; a darling.

Of the above definitions for a minion, my preferred one would have to be #3.

its October!!!!

It's already October and I am yet to Blog!

So where have I been, hiding under a Log?

No, it's school holidays and we have been out having fun

There is lots do when you have some sun.

I have a little creation to show you tomorrow - it is so cute I think you will like it.

Crafty Kids -

My girls just love doing scoubies! There are so many different ways to weave them and they are discovering new designs everyday. They are so clever. I think they should put some onto my next market stall - what do you think?

At the moment they are loving to make special pens

This one is a Helicopter

An assortment of styles on a keyring

How cute are these little guys? Little Grass Head people - they are having lots of fun growing these.

It's Hectic

Life is Hectic!! Why you ask? Well apart from all the usual day to day things I am costume co-ordinating 120 kids for a School Music Production.

This is why I have not been blogging. Instead I have been sewing. After it all I am going to need a holiday.
