I have been working on; boat building....
Little yachts that you can hang up (somewhere). With a Cinnamon stick mast, mini sails (from a collection of yumi op shop, market and ebay fabric finds), and a couple of extras (buttons, flags etc) each one is different and a wee bit fiddly but lots of fun.
AND; my children's greeting card collection....
If you have a spare second take a look at the 'gweeeeeetings' post and you can see the finished product. In the meantime, I will carry on cutting out patches from an old sheet I found at Salvos and sewing sewing sewing in a wiggly fashion. I'm so in love with this material, I think some of the patches are too cute, like 'j for jam' and 'n for necklace'. I've also used some of this material on my wee sails to make personalised yachts (like the 'S' yacht above).
Happy crafty days. Check out all the other fabulous Thursday crafters at Kootoyoo!
Very cute! Those little boats are so sweet.
