Making and Giving

It's such a joy to give a treasured one something I've made. With Xmas looming the sewing machine and crochet hooks are smokin'.......... sshhhhhhhh! Lots of sales in the Gooseflesh Boutique too, not to mention commissions, the Rubbish Vortex and the Coral Garden.

Thankfully I have a bit more time as the IFF Crochet Coral Reef Exhibition has been postponed to the end of 2008. Instead the The Rubbish Vortex will have its debut in New York in early April.

Coral bracelet crocheted and fulled from tapestry wool. A commission.

A cheeky dog and toy-bag for Little Mr.K. Dudley the Dog is made from cotton gloves. The "how-to" is in this Japanese Craft Book ISBN #4-579-11061-7.

Toy-bags for my nephews, treasured little ones above all else. The fabric is Japanese and has truffle pigs and little monkeys on it. I bought it from Matabi Japanese Textiles

Back to the hooks to start a commission for Vanessa.
