I've been doing a bit of sewing lately.I enjoy it so much (in the back of my head while I typed that,I thought "I sound like such an old lady and I'm only 26!lol).

The projects I bought to do,yeah they didn't last very long haha.

I made this flag bunting for the girls room.They have so much pink in their room already that I decided to use this fabric,I love the blue and really like that its still girly with the butterflies.And the red ribbon! I'm pretty happy with how it turned out,especially for being hand sewn (don't come to our house and look at the back of it though!A little messy)Ohhh AND I paid all of $8 for the fabric and ribbon instead of paying $30 for a ready made set!And the fabric should do at least another two sets of these!


I'm going to be making some more for some friends children which will be fun :)

The other project was these cute Russian dolls.Spotlight sell panels off them,just sew them,stuff them then play with them (or the kids do haha)

So not the best picture,sorry!Cameras batteries are pretty much dead and I cannot figure out how to get photos from my phone onto the laptop (well I don't know which cord to use and none fit :p).But at least you can see how much our girls love playing with them!! I'm going to go buy another panel with some extra red fabric,and instead of making 6, I'm going to make 12 and that way I can give a set to Nana and my Mum for Christmas!Clever huh? (not really,I saw a lady had done that on the Spotlight website :p ).And yes that is our Christmas tree that is up :) I had had a hard week and decided I wanted the Christmas tree up bang on the 1st of November!When I was living at home I had to wait till December,but I decided I'm an adult and this is my home so I can my tree up when I want haha (seriously,I wanted it up in October but Steve compromised and said the 1st of November,thats how well he knows me...Im a little Christmas mad!AND our girls gave me Christmas decorations for my birthday,I was so stoked haha.On the Christmas note,if anyone knows of a child friendly Christmas production that will be on,please let me know,really want to take the girls).

I also finished the quilt for Sienna's dolls bed,but will put a picture of that up once I've finished Isabella's one.After that I only have to do the case for the mattress for it then my part of their Christmas presents is all done!Yay! (ahem,Mr Wong STILL needs to build the dolls beds!)
