Memory box
After eight months I finally got around to finishing Gracies memory box!
I have plans for it to to be either hung in her room or for it to sit on her duchess. I have also purchased another box for the next baby (in my dreams!) as I am constantly being told not to fuss so much over this baby because i'll have to do the same amount of stuff for the next one -
bring it on!

Tutu

Well in a spare 5 mins last weekend I made my first tutu, the simplest craft I have ever attempted! One length of Ribbon and 20 or so 20cm wide pieces of fairy tulle (two colours works best). The tutu tulle is nicer than plain tulle, it's soft and stretchy. Now for the difficult part - yeah right! just knot the tulle (making sure the ends are even) around the ribbon leaving enough ribbon to tie the tutu in a bow around you fairy. Thats it.

Molly.
Molly is my inspiration, she was my first project as a mummy for my beautiful baby girl Gracie.
She was hand stitched... quite a feat being a full time working mum! I have since acquired a sewing machine....which is not going well!
I will post more of my creations soon, including Ollie Owl.
