The Mt Tambourine craft show is on again this weekend... I set up my stall on Wednesday and the show started yesterday. My grandson Kynnan came and helped me set it all up... He was a terrific help as he carried everything inside for me and then helped me set things out as well.
Here are some pics of my stand... sorry a couple are blurry.
Hubby has made some new thread stands, some new shelves, new cupboards. We are hoping some of them sell........
Well I am off here now......

I have managed to get a few more things finished... How about these little cuties... I just love them....

And the bear to go with the prim Raggedy and prim Bunny..... What do you think...?????
I have three more dolls to get finished them that is all I can do... Plus some more note books to finish painting on as well..... Time is running out........

I tell you I never thought in the beginning of the year that I would get so busy with hubby being sick and other things that life throws at us. Yet here we are almost half way through the year.
Crafting has still been on my agenda and I have completed some more things. Hopefully I can now get more involved with my blog again. Hubby has had another opperation and is on the mend once more.
I have made a doll for a lady in the USA... What do you think of her. I have had to make another head as the first one wasn't to the ladies liking. This is with the first head.....
This is with the second head.....
Here is a close up of the face....
While I was doing the new face, I thought it would look good on my two new prim dollies. What is your opinion...????
We have also made these pincushions... I just have to add the tape measure and scissors to them.
I am making three of these teddies...
Here are some magnets and hanging hearts.
And lastly here are some pull-a-long sheep toys I am working on. Two are finished and 8 more have to have the cotton reel wheels added. I designed them from the folk art sheep that you see in a lot of paintings.
well I am off here now to do some more dollying and over the weekend I will be painting again. We have a craft show up at Mt Tambourine nest week so we have a lot of things to get finished.....

I have been very busy... not all I have made can be shown as some has been made to go in the magazines and we wouldn't want to spoil the surprise....
I have made some new dolls..... I made a second Spring and Summer set... just different hair....
These are for sale... $28 AUD each plus postage each.
And how sweet is this doll... Jemma and Evie. Pattern for this doll will be available soon.
I have also made this Raggedy Shelf Sitter... Pattern is almost finished for her....
I have also been playing around with some new siggy tags.....
I have a new stitchery pattern on the go which has these cuties in it plus a couple more... it will be called Best Friends and will be a very cute wall hanging.
Well I am off here now but before I go I would like to wish everyone a very happy Easter and if you are travelling... please stay safe.
We are off to Toowoomba tomorrow to spend Easter with our kids. We will have four of our five children together, plus three of our grandkids... I am so looking forward to seeing them all......

These two little cuties will be a freebie pattern in the next issue of the online mag called.. The Rusty Tin Roof . What do you think... cute or what....???
Sorry I have been MIA once again, but hubby has been crook again, in hospital and had another opperation. Hopefully he is on the road to recovery now.
I have been working on more items, but alas I cannot show you as they are going to be in magazines this year. Watch out in Country Threads and Handmade for some cute dolls etc.....

I have just finished carding some of my flowers. I had fun making them and also making the cards. Aren't punches a wonderful thing... I love them....
I am selling these flowers for $1.50 per card. The flowers could be used for scrapbooking, to embellish bags add to dolls... your imagfination will think of many more uses for them.
Due to the nature of these flowers no two are identical.. but they all look lovely. These are the five colours that I have so far..... If you would like to purchase any please e mail me. Payment for overseas customers is by Pay Pal... Aussie customers can also pay direct deposit.

I have just finished this bag for my grand daughter... I made it from a T Towel and nice spot fabric... I think it has turnd out well..Plus I got to use some of the flowers I have been making.....
I hope she likes it. It was her birthday on the 14th and she turned 20... her brother's birthday was yesterday, he turned 18... but I don't think he wants a hand bag... LOL Yesterday was also my Mum's 80th and we are having a surprise BBQ at her place this afternoon.... All of my siblings will be there... it will be a nice surprise for Mum......
Better get off here as three of my kids and their families are about to descend on me.. so I had better get things straightened up... Yes they are all going to Mum's surprise party......

I am very happy with the way these turned out... they are so easy to make. I will definitely be making more... I just have to make another run to the opp shop to find some different colours.
There are a million things these can be used on... so pop back if a week or so to see what I have used some of these for.....
