Creative weekend for all.

Yesterday the girls (me included), had great fun playing with one of Eden's birthday presents. It is a fashion design kit that comes with stencils, patterned paper and cute little coat hangers! (too cute). Here are our creations;..I'm not going to tell you who created what - you can guess. I think it's quite funny how the outfits turned out looking a bit like what we would each to choose to wear. Then I decided to sort my fabrics and make them look all pretty.... This inspired me to sew something. I was up until 1:40am happily sewing away, oblivious to the time. I couldn't believe it was so late when I eventually hopped into bed. I was making this; Happy 15th Birthday Emmy! XX

Thankyou gifts

I haven't been feeling very well these last few days. Seems I have a cold. However, I have managed to piece together a couple of thankyou gifts for the lovely Liz, for her efforts making Eden's birthday cake! Here they are; The "Very Liz" clutch; and a visual diary cover made from fabric that reminded me of her; All my recent sewing projects have inspired Lily to get out her sewing machine and make a bag. She has also developed her own brand name 'Pretty Pink'! (pretty cute!) And here is a cute photo of our our handsome prince!

My Weekend.

It was a busy, busy weekend full of celebration and LOADS of excitement! Eden had her 7th birthday party at a rollerskating rink! (The $5 hair-crimper was put to use - gotta have 80's crimped hair for a rollerskating party!) Fun was had by all (I think). Here are some pickies; It was a late night Friday night (or should I say morning??) Liz and I worked on until 3am on Eden's birthday cake - but it was worth it - she LOVED IT!!! (THANK YOU LIZ!!!) Sunday was spent with good company too. A birthday / fairwell lunch for Suzi at Tenefeate winery (yummy pizza) and then I worked on until the wee hours of the morning again to complete her birthday prezzie; Hope you like it Suze! Do you like my personalised "GreeN LeaF" lable tag? This is going to be my "brand" name, tee-hee! One day I might get professional woven tags made with the words, but for now I'm happy making my own. Unfortunately too many late nights has seen me wake up this morning with a killer sore throat!! Hummmm....not feeling well at all...DOH! (Just aren't enough hours in the day!)
