Recycled plastic ~ cute bags
Hey! How you going in lockdown? I randomly discovered a video where this woman was making these cute little bags out of the duvet/sheet plastic bags and I thought, yep, I’ve got some of those. I ordered some brads from Spotlight, and I made the little brown circles out of card with my CRICUT maker,…

Stay in your Bubble!
As promised yesterday I thought I would do something relevant to the start of this year and our key message from our Prime Minister here in NZ. We went into lock down hard and fast and it seems to be paying off. Staying at home and in my bubble is easy for me.

Love your life
Hi there! I thought being in lockdown (in NZ) for the past two weeks I would have done way more creatively, but to be honest, I’ve been too busy, especially with work! Anyway, a long Easter holiday weekend is perfect to have enough time to start to create. So I just made this up as…

Blues & Greens
As you’ve probably guessed by now, if you know me at all, I love little houses! I also love to cross-stitch at night when I’m watching Netflix. I feel like sitting watching Netflix isn’t a waste of time if I’m doing something! So I cross-stitched this little house without a clue what it would…

You are Loved
Hi there! The thing about the holidays is that you have the time to be creative, make a mess in your craft room, and leave it like that for a few days. Yesterday morning I dug out a tiny cross-stitch which I would have done about a year ago. I was going to frame it…

My first Doll

Pansy Pick
Last day of my mini holiday (Queens Birthday weekend). I have quite a few cross stitches that are finished waiting for me to frame, or make into cushions, book covers … who knows, and so I got started on this little one and just love it. I think the mix of freemotion sewing, fabric and…

Embroidery Collage
Just finished this little emboidery I started a few months ago. One of those things you do on the side when you’ve got a few spare moments. It’s something a little different for me because I didn’t use the sewing machine. But I do love hand sewing. The finished product is only 210mm x…

With God
Its my sister-in-law’s birthday on Wednesday (so I won’t post this before)! She is a great preacher.. yes! Her husband is my brother and the minister of the church I attend. She loves Scripture around the house … I heard her say it from the pulpit one time, so of course the perfect present! Mmmm,…
