How do you like my little rainbow wreath? I love it!
I had had the polystyrene ring for a while, wondering and wondering what to do with it. Then I made a rainbow chevron quilt, and ended up with lots of little scraps of fabric. I neatened up the scraps, added a bit of Mod Podge & hey presto, a colourful little wreath to brighten up my lounge! I think a festive one might be next.
My oldest boy has gone back to school now, back to normal routines for us all. Phew! But on the flip side I have been so busy at work I’ve not had much spare time lately. Ah well, everything balances out in the end, and today both my little boys were with Granny & Grandad, so me & my husband have had a rare lovely day to ourselves!
I really enjoyed doing the craft fair the other week, I’ve booked in to do another nearer to Christmas as well! I forgot to take a picture of my stall, but here’s my mock up on the kitchen table the night before:
For sale I had bibs, mini quilts, key rings, felt hair clips, zippered pouches, tote bags, all kinds of things. I must admit that I felt quite proud of everything I had made. Now, got to get my (whisper it) Christmas head on, ready for the next one!
I’m going to have a stall at the Heart & Craft fair at Headingley Heart on Saturday. It’s the first time I have been at a craft fair in a while and I am really looking forward to it! I have been sewing sewing sewing in all my spare time for the last few weeks, and my lovely parents and in-laws have helped by minding the boys to give me a little bit of extra time. Thanks Grandma & Grandpa & Granny & Grandad!
My friend Jayne, who makes the most lovely jewellery, will also be at the fair. This will be great as we can mind one another’s stalls for coffee/loo breaks. Have a little look at Jayne’s shop, Pebble Jewellery. I’ll take one of everything please!
I’m looking forward to meeting the other stallholders too, maybe I’ll make some new crafty friends.
If you’re in Leeds on Saturday, pop in & see us! 
I’ve been making felt flower hair clips for the craft fair I’m doing on Saturday. I love felt, the colours are so strong. And even better, it does not fray when you cut it! Each flower is different, I had a lot of fun cutting them out then building each flower. I’m easily pleased!
