...it's not a card



My biggest girlie found a book that she 'needed' the other day - It's called 'Stray Sock Sewing' (Published by David and Charles, devised by a very creative chappie known simply as Daniel.) and it's full of adorable patterns for one of a kind critters....

...it's what we've been doing all day. No cards. Not a sausage.

Here is one of our growing brood. Lol - these are so easy to make! you have to try it!

Hope it tickles.

Look at it's eedie beedie wee feeties!! It's snout would have been better furnished with some Melon berry buttons, but I paid a fortune to have them shipped from America...Lol.

  17. Message for Sarah and daughter - over here (and in Scotland) this word 'wee' is used a lot....in fact sometimes it is used when it shouldn't be...for instance checkout persons have a habit of saying 'put your wee pin in the machine' !! - a former colleague used to say to clients in reception in our lawyers office 'take a wee seat' and I just about laughed out loud one day when she said this to a man who would have needed two seats to hold him he was so big!! Sorry Claire, I say this too, as we all tend to do, but had to comment to Sarah and her daughter. Ease off Claire..........r*e*l*a*x* !!!
