I Have Been Crafting Honest

I have been crafting non stop since my last post, just never seem to find the time to up date my blog 

So what has been taking up my time 

 A shop in town has started stocking the dog breed cushions I embroider

 I was working at full pelt to get the initial stock done and into the shop.

I still have my regular stall in the village once a month and decided a new line was needed

So I bought in a job lot of 50 vintage denim shirts to decorate 

 some of the deigns I have done

to help with the work load

 a new bigger industrial machine was needed

Martin bought it for me valentines day, I then had to have a re-shuffle around in the cabin to accommodate it.

 I have had an order for 40 of these key rings to complete.

 been making these infinity scarfs

 and neck warmers

 with various designs on them

I have also taken on a regular spot at another monthly craft fayre

 I have been doing butterfly headbands

 ready for next week end

 I finished this Japanese Obi bag yesterday to add to my stall but its already sold so will have to do another one now.

There is also a load of other stuff made but I wont bore you with it all. 😀

So as you can  see I haven't been neglecting my crafts just been busy crafting.

I have taken down my etsy shop something had to give after all.

A Mix Bag Of Things

 A couple of bags I have made up ready to sell, the first one I have used cork fabric, it is real cork I have been itching to use it on something

This one I love the colours on 

A landscape art bag, I have made this one for myself but I am going to make some more up in different designs to add to my stock lines.

I dont think I have showed these, fidget spinner cases, I have been making these from recycled denim.

I loved making this little mouse, she is only 4 inches tall again I am going to make up some more.

 

work in progress, this tweed applique will be a wall hanging, I have added 3d voile leaves to it

and something for me, during the hot spell we had I needed something cool to wear, tailored shorts are just too uncomfortable, so I made up some culottes, they were so comfortable and cool I have now made up several pairs.

 

I am working on setting up an online shop, it is again work in progress and hope in the next few weeks I will have it up and running, more news and a link to come when I have it ready.
