Maneki Neko



I have become a little obsessed with making these little cats.
They are made from socks, the Japanese believe they represent Good luck.
This was the first one I made.

Weightwatchers journey again!!

Myself and a few ladies from work, decided to do our own weightloss club. We all weighed in on the 9th Feb, I managed to lose 3lb in that first week, but stepping on the scales this am, I think it back on again!!

Can't wait for school, just to get back into a routine, at least regarding food


Will keep you upto date with things.
I bought some craft eyes from Hobbycraft earlier this week, only I can't get the backs on to them. 30mins of huffing and puffing ,and yes, Swearing and I gave up,lol. I put some fabric glue around each shank and hope that works.

I have orders for more Sackboys, this will make #5, I think I know the pattern almost by heart now.

I have still got a golfball and a rugby ball cushion to make, so half term is great for me!! Plenty of crafting time.

Emma will be 18 on Sunday.Aaaaaaaaaaaargh our little precious daughter is an adult!!

Well, I did it

I started a blog... Hmmm let me think...what to write about.

People who know me, will not believe I am at a loss about what to say!!

I am older than I act lol. I love to craft, and will have a go at most things, my favourite being knitting and sewing.

I love to make novelty cushions and love a challenge.
