A mish mash of things.....

I have been meaning to blog for a few days now, but have not gotten around to so this will probably be a mish mash of a few things...

First is a few pictures of the bags I made while I was away. This first one I am not sure what to do with it - maybe sell - it is made from some fabulous vintage fabric.
Second is the fabric, not the bag I made a bag for my gorgeous sister for her birthday - I just forgot to take a pic of the finished product before I gave it to her. I just love this fabric - yet again another vintage recycled piece of fabric (a curtain I think!)
Lastly this bag is Mum's birthday present, made from some beautiful vintage chenille - I still have enough to make a cushion out of which was supposed to be for my sister - the way I am going, she may get it for christmas!
This next photo is of the most gorgeous beanie that crafted by kylie sent me as part of a chocolate swap we did a while ago - I also got 2 blocks of YUMMY chocolate (so yummy in fact that I ate them all before I had a chance to take a photo!!) & the most fantastic recipe book - "Old Fashion Desserts" - I LOVE all the recipes in there. Thank you SO much Kylie - I have been spoilt. The beanie is a perfect fit for Liam too!

I was also going to make this next week my "Finish a UFO a day" week, but I think I might leave it until next week.... or the next ... or sometime soon.

Great, great fabrics! I so much want to get my hands on some more vintage fabrics. Op shopping with Chloe is currently too, too hard though!

Oh I am glad that the parcel arrived and the chocolate went down a treat! Glad that the beanie fits - looks like it will get alot of use this winter!
