Some pics of my recent stuff

Hi voracious craft fans,

I have finally ended up in the same room as my photographer husband for long enough to photograph and upload some happy snaps of recent project of mine. I mainly make toys and minature dolls' clothes but also occasionally make clothes for the kids. My favorite pattern designers are Jean Greenhowe and Barbara Prime for knitted toys and Annie's Attic for the crocheted miniature doll clothes.

The topsy turvy doll is about 20cm tall, the Dino about the same long and the babies are 5 inch dolls.

I am on the verge of finishing a pirate doll from Jean Greenhowe and am very excited as I went to a craft show on the weekend and came home with a kit for a Katkins Designs doll. She is my next project!

I'm also proud because I've made it to my Zumba class twice this week, amongst all the fun and games at our house!

If you've made it this far, thanks for reading.

My First Post

My husband thinks I need a craft blog. On one hand, I see his point, since I'm quite prolific with my craft but on the other, this now means I will have one more reason not to do housework! I do like to humour him, so I will give this blogging thing a go.

I'm a hospital pharmacist by day, 3 days a week, a SAHM on the other two weekdays to my two beautiful kids and a complete craft addict full time!

I've been knitting for about 3 years now, crocheting for about 18 months and sewing for just over a year. I like to make smaller projects mainly because I get so much satisfaction from finishing things. At the moment I'm making lots of toys but I also like to make miniature doll clothes and clothes for my son and daughter.

I'll be doing a mini photo shoot of my projects with my husband soon and will post some pictures of my work.

Thanks for reading!
Over and out.
