New little animals

Happy Friday Folks!

I have just completed these 2 little animal and wanted to show you...

May the Mouse

Vann the Cow

The mouse is for a little 3 month old baby who hasn't been very welll. So May goes with lots of love and best wishes!

My baby blanket challenge

Happy Thursday!

I can't belive its that time of the week already! I have been very busy, making a May the Mouse and Vann the Cow for Strawberry Lemonade Boutique, building up my stock levels for all my fairs coming up in June and planning for my boyfriend Jamie's birthday on Saturday! I have an exciting plan but shhhh...its a surprise, I will tell you all about it next week.

I have also started working on my second baby blanket....


I started crocheting it when I was in China and Hong Kong the other week with work. Its in baby blue, denim blue, lime green, orange and jade! I love the unusual choice of colours I have combined. I think its going to look really fab when its made.

A little sneak preview here....


Just need someone with a few pounds or dollars to spare who appreciates such great taste to buy it! haha!

I heart crochet!

I have gone a bit crochet mad recently. I have just seen so many lovely things on Etsy and really enjoy crochet but making a whole blanket or throw is just such a bit project!

Aren't these adorable? If only I seaside home to put them in!



Anyway so with this in mind, I went a bit crazy and spent a fortune on cotton thread from Yeomans yarns (http://www.yeoman-yarns.co.uk/home.php) and have been crocheting like crazy! Ending up with lots of bunting that has been listed on Etsy and Folksy, and that will hopefully sell at the upcoming fairs I have in June.

These are my attempts:

What do you think?!

Next challenge...baby blankets, they should be simple enough!
