It was my cousin´s christening last week. I couldn´t go but it doesn´t mean I wasn´t thinking of her. I hope all the other little girls get jelous when she wears this skirt I made!

The blogspot Crafterhours caught my eye recently because they are taking part in Little Dresses for Africa. The idea is to get as many handmade dresses out there to girls who wouldn´t otherwise get to wear them. I really liked the idea and signed myself up for it.
This is the first one that I have made. The first of many. This one is going to be sent to Crafterhours to help reach their goal, my intention after that is to carrying on making them for Little Dresses for Africa, so if there is anyone in the Barcelona area who would like to donate fabric it would be welcomed with open arms. Equally if there is anyone who can sew, put needle to thread and join in!

The writer Maurice Sendak sadly died yesterday. Some of you may know him as the writer of ¨Where the wild things are¨ Today I´ve been making this bag, a wild thing, in tribute to the writer and his wonderful story. Rest In Peace.

This spring top put the spring in my step . I´ll admit that I do feel quite proud of it.
I feel so inspired! I´m now working on a dress, fingers crossed it comes out ok.

Team with the theme

Just In Case!

Oh so simple! But careful the chocolate isn´t too hot.
I saw how to do these while browsing pinterest. The instructions were in chinese but it was all quite logical. Just be careful the chocolate has cooled down before dipping the balloons in, its a right mess otherwise, trust me!
They really are easy and will never fail to impress when friends are over.

Snap up one of these snap purses if you are one of the lucky few to be invited to the Lovely Lianne Chatwin´s very own Tea with Dee this saturday afternoon. Tea and cake followed by wine and snacks and the unique opportunity to get your mits on a one off handmade bag, purse, pinny, pin....ensure your unique style this spring. Love, live and buy handmade.

It´s been a while but there has been a very good reason, I´ve been busy making these and more! The totes are not so simple however, just like us ladies they are multi-tasking too with addtional compartments. Gone are my days of searching at the bottom of the bag for my keys, no time wasted!
