My creative space ...


30 kitties, bunnies and puppies means 60 little ears and 60 little arms need to be sewn, turned and pressed... not that I'm counting, the last thing you want to do is start counting when your space is this repetitious...


it's all for the love of BiDM of course, which is now just over 2 weeks away!


Luckily I have beautiful things to play with this week, like gorgeous wool blanketing samples thanks to this generous Daylesford soul. Incredibly soft, they will be put to work in January to make some very special Cuddly Cats.

For more spaces or to show off your own pop over to Kirsty's.

And if any of you Brisbanites are heading to ABCD tonight, I'll see you there!

hehe, they may not look like production line shots but I'm feeling very much like I belong in a factory in China this week!

Kate said...

Those photos are great. You could frame a few production line shots for your stall. It adds the background story to your lovely finished product.

Good luck with all of the ears and arms - you must be a patient soul. Loving the wool blanket samples - I just want to feel them - they look so soft.

See, I'm thinking that maybe you should be counting. With all those bits and pieces to make, you don't want to be making extras!
