group photo

Finally... the group photo of the mermaids heading up to Queensland for Hope Softies. Packed in like sardines, and looking very colourful all together. For those that are curious, the pattern is from Wee Wonderfuls: 24 Dolls to Sew and Love. I did change the instructions slightly to accommodate sewing with felt, and that in turn cut down my sewing time quiet significantly- a big bonus when sewing in bulk. Goodbye lovely Mermaidens, I do hope you all find wonderful homes! 

hearts

Some Valentines love,

from our house to yours.

Lovely red felt, a piece of ric rac and a few pink buttons.

I did want to hand stitch around the hearts but you know how it goes, baby throws up, oven timer rings, phone rings, someone falls off the bike and then its school pick up time (I could go on).

Machine zig zag will have to do.
