The Long And Short of It

I've started making draught excluders from some great fabric that I found in a thrift shop in New York - the fabric was made in Ireland though and made into sausage dogs here in a very wet and windy London!

Pinny Pin Pin!

Came across the cut-offs from my new jeans today, some one (Other Half) used one cut off as a temporary pin cushion!

Don't Eat Us!


I started making these gingerbread men, then thought "what am I doing? I should be making ginger bread bears!" Here they are then, made from old corduroy and decorated with rick-rack and buttons & beads from our daughter's old broken bracelets and necklaces.

Some of my bears are now available at Anthropologie a new American store recently opened on Regent Street in London Town (see pic above). Also at a lovely shop filled with designer goodies called 'Family Tree'-.
