Angelica

2010-09-13T21:32:00.003+10:00

Thought I would show a few pics of my big girl Angelica that I have reborned, she took about 3 mths to do with 2 of those months just putting in her hair, its human hair and only one or two strands at a time go in, I have to admit she was a challenge to do but just loved it and will do another one one day. She is also pictured with another little boy that I have reborned.

Getting back into it

2010-09-13T21:08:00.002+10:00

Yep I have really neglected this blog for ages now, keep going to come and update it but just get side tracked so think its time I added things onto it, been very busy making reborn dolls this year though so thats been good as well as other crafty stuff, will be going through the pics and posting a few very soon.

My Mum's Bag

2009-12-06T14:33:00.008+11:00

This is a bag I made up for my mum for her birthday, really didn't know it it would work out as I was just making it up as I went a long. I machine embroidered a cross stitch flower for the frount, the frount pocket zips out, it has a zip pocket, card pockets and an extended pocket, inside the bag is just a zip pocket and a zip pocket on the back of the bag as well. My mum really like it and uses it all the time, I was worried it may have been a bit heavy but mum thinks its great so Im happy.

How Time Fly

2009-09-13T19:21:00.002+10:00

Wow!! hasnt the time gone, cant get over its been nearly 12 mths since Ive been here, been very busy over these last months with my reborn dolls, I did a doll show in Sydney last month with a wonderful friend, we had a ball and I sold one baby..yay....

Well things have settled down here now so think I will get stuck back into here, I will post pics of things Ive been doing over these months as well very soon.

Cameron

2008-10-17T21:57:00.004+11:00

Little Cameron, he was Sebastiano a sculpt by Fiorenza Biancheri, I haven't long finished him, really enjoyed reborning him and the funny thing is, he has turned out looking very much like my little grandson so I think Im going to dress him up and give him to my daughter for christmas.

Fridge magnets

2008-08-06T19:27:00.003+10:00

I nearly forgot to put pics of these up, it was our June swap fridge magnets, these are the ones that my swap partner sent, they look great on the fridge and just love the Autumn colours. I'm not sure if I took pics of the ones I did, I can't find any but I know they weren't anywhere near as good as what I received.

Pin cushion swap

2008-08-06T16:43:00.007+10:00

We had a real fun swap at Crafty Mamas for July, pin cushions,these are the ones I made,

and these are the ones my swap partner sent me, I just love them, she has really done a fantastic job.

Little Missy

2008-08-06T10:00:00.005+10:00

My baby I thought I would never show to anyone, she was the second reborn I did and ended up looking so over cooked it wasnt funny, I made the body miles to big for her, then put the limbs on the wrong way, the poor thing did look so bad, so I took off what paint I could off her head and started again and made her a smaller body with everything the right way, at least now I feel I can show her to people.

My reborn doll

2008-07-08T17:03:00.002+10:00

My first reborn baby I have just finished,I have been making them for about the last 6 mths but she is first one I want to show pics of, I have to make her a pink outfit yet, seeing my last bubs was a boy everything I have is blue or white.I think I made her body a little to big for her but other wise shes not to bad, I still have a lot to learn especially in rooting hair but I'm getting there.She was a Berenguer La Baby doll, thinking about naming her Molly, not to sure yet. Oh yeah Im also terrible at taking pictures, have to get hubby to take better ones.

I won a prize

2008-05-26T21:17:00.002+10:00

In a save water competition on the net, I was rapped, won $60.00 worth of ecologic cleaning products, there was floor cleaner, wool wash, dish wash , laundry wash and multi purpose spray so I think I did pretty good, only bummer thing about it is now is that means I should do some cleaning ;-)

if your interested in it and you live in Australia, you can go here to enter, they have 2 competitions a year.

Teddy Bears for the Grandsons

2008-04-26T22:41:00.003+10:00

I made these Teddies for my grandsons, unfortunately I'm not the best at sewing noses but the grandsons loved them and I believe they sleep with them to, so I'm happy.

My oldest grandson who is 6 took his to school for show and tell, he was pretty stoked about his one to as they were here when I was making it, so he got to help stuff his one which is the one with the blue ribbon, so that teddy is just a bit more special for him.

What I have made.

2008-04-20T21:53:00.002+10:00

Well I just lurveee my embroidery machine, must say I'm actually very hooked anyway here are a few things I made up for easter pressies,

the bunny baskets I did one up for each of my daughters and one for my sister, btw the pic was taken with it upside down so I just flipped it up the right way. The flower baskets for the two mums and dh's grandma and seeing we were in Sydney for easter, I did up a towel set for each of the dh's sisters in different colours and of course different names but with all the same design and the mum set I did for each mum only in different colours.

Easter Swap

2008-04-18T19:10:00.003+10:00

We had an easter swap at crafty mamas and this is a picture of what I received off my swap partner Kylie, just loved everything I got, thank you so much Kylie :-)

Finally back

2008-04-10T13:24:00.002+10:00

Wow! hasn't time gone by, hope everyone had a great easter and easter bunny was good to them, my computer decided to die so my dh has fixed up a spare computer for me to use thank god except on my old one I had heaps of pics to put on here, hopefully soon he will be able to put my hard drive in this one and get everything back.

My dh gave me a fantastic surprises, a Janome 300e machine, I just love it, I didn't realise how much you could do on an embroidery machine and am well and truly hooked, just can't get over he was able to keep it so quiet and not let me know but I am so glad he did, it is one surprise I won't forget. :-)

Anyway as soon as everything is fixed up I will post pics of what I've been up to.

CM Christmas Swap

2008-02-11T08:51:00.001+11:00

I had forgotten to put pics of what I did my swap partner in the christmas swap we had at crafty mamas, sorry about the pics being so dark, I was in such a hurry taking them I didn't stop to check how they turned out.

I did a beaded key chain, wooden bead necklace and a crystal bead window ornament

2 place mats

a bag, pin cushion, crocheted top tea towel, face washer, hand towel and soap and a sewing organizer folder has pockets inside to keep needles, pins, tape measure and things.

My partner liked everything so that was good :-)
