My Creative Space...

Oh my, my creative space involves thread! just maybe, that pincushion has inspired me :)
Can't say that I will manage this at all, but it will be attempted and you may even get to see me do something with fabric after all.

Stay tuned.

Hey, why don't you have a peek over at Kirsty's for some more creative spaces.

Psssstt, don't forget, Northside Makers Market on this Saturday where you'll get to see some real creativity!

    Have fun sewing! I find having an unpicker gadget invaluable, in case things don't go according to plan. Mine gets put to good use! Bye.

I have been extremely lucky with blog giveaways lately and have won an extremely beautiful pack from the gorgeous and lovely Liesa at Handmade Heaven and a very supercute Bugga Bugs giveaway hosted by the very, very talented Alicia at The Red Deer , so a very BIG thank you ladies! If you haven't visited them yet, why don't you pop by for a visit and enjoy their fabulous blogs! So to give back to the good Karma giveaway fund, I visited a cake decorating store for some inspiration...and I came out with a box full of cupcake papers, that's about 600 or more. I think I was in that shop for a good 45 minutes, I am not joking, it's like a kid in a candy store...or a fabric store for my lovely sew crafty blog friends :) Now all you have to do is leave a comment, nothing much, just a hello or share a joke. I'll leave it open till midnight Saturday the 31st of October and also the end of Blogtoberfest and draw a winner from a hat or bowl or bag and announce it on Sunday...

Honey Jumbles

Have been thinking about making Honey Jumbles for a while and saw them over at Liss's the other day and definitely had to try them as they look and believe me they smell soooo good!  My critics advise me they are delicious and very moreish.
