Bee happy ..... use lavender

I had a little spare time so I made some little lavender decorations.
 
 
I used my stamps and printed on some fabric that matched my living room curtains.
 
I then stitched around the edges, tucking a ribbon loop in at the top, filled with lavender and then finished stitching up.
 
I used a different fabric for the backs, spots and gingham which were scraps I had in my scrap bag.
 
I cut a few branches from the garden and then hung my sachets on these.
 
I think they look great in the living room.

 
Don't forget to enter my giveaway if you haven't already done so over here.
 
It ends on Saturday 20th October.
 
 
There is now also a fabric book mark included in the giveaway with a signed copy of my book
Diary of a house move.

Bee happy .... let the purchases roll in! and make with Tilda

My Internet shopping is beginning to turn up at last! how slow things take when you are waiting for them!  So far this week I've had by Everything Alice book and now my scrabble tiles.


I found these wooden scrabble squares on Etsy and had to have them :)

Tilda has been keeping me company while I am house bound.

I love her books and the instructions are so easy inside.

I had a go at making a scalloped edge pocket to hold things in.



I used CK fabric but instead of using a hole punched in the back to hang up my bag I used East of India ribbon and a couple of cute buttons.


I've also kept myself busy this week adding a few bits to my Etsy and Folksy shops.


Had to show you this photo.  The bees love the lavender on our newly washed patio and snapped this bee mid air, how cool is that!

Have a delicious day!
