In the Pink

Clare from expressorize ure self (http://www.misi.co.uk/view_profile.php?user_id=1110)
is taking part in the "race for life" and not only would she appreciate your sponsorship, but was thinking of fundraising ideas. A "PINK" shop was suggested, this is my offering, if it goes ahead? (A little rough around the edges it was 11pm when I finished it lol)

If you have any ideas for either Clares "Pink" charity or my "Sunflower" one, we would be delighted to hear them.

Thanks Mo

This morning Postman Pat (well actually I don't know his name, we're not on that sort of terms) delivered a box all the way from Wiltshire.
Addressed to me, lucky me.
This was inside it...again lucky me.

A mixture of cotton, fleeces, flannel,faux suede and leather, even some beauiful buttons and some patterns.Oh our teddies will be very well dressed now lol
Mo you are a very generous lady, and I can't wait to start creating.
LUCKY ME!

createdoh magic

When the world was in its beginnings, when the creatures and people were finding their way in the world, the creator sat with a lump of createdoh, and tried to decide which creature it should become.
He rolled it, pulled it, pushed it and tweaked it until he was called to dinner.
He stood up quickly and as he did so, the ball of brown creatdoh rolled unnoticed to the completed side of the table and there it stayed. Many things made their way to this side of the table, some like the brown blob remained unseen, others the creator saw and he either removed and tweaked them or left them as they were, which explains why there are so many imperfect and different beings on this land of ours.

Blobbo(the brown createdoh lump) looked around and saw bushes of eucalyptus everywhere, she was feeling peckish so she reached for some leaves. As they were so delicious she ate another one and another one, until her little tum was filled, and she could no longer see her feet.
One day while the round Blobbo was out with her children,she heard the unmistakeable sounds of hunters, looking for food for their families, Quickly Blobbo called to her family.
"Joseph, Jodie, Joanne, Josephine, quick come to Mama."
Running quickly, the crying children ran to the safety of their mother, Bobbo gathered them to her and tucking her head down, the family sat, still as stone and waited.
"can..can they see us, aaaah...ooooh Mama." they whispered.
"shhh," came the reply.
They must have been successful, because the hunters stood very close and muttered about there being nothing but rocks and stones around, before moving on.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Blobbo removed each child from their hiding place in her many folds of fat.

The creator, watching these events was very impressed and he lifted up Blobbo. Smiling to hinmself, he began to redesign the brown createdoh lump.
He took away her many wobbly bits, the hiding places for her children, all that is except one. He left her one safe little place for her children.

He called her the Kangaroo, and now you know how and why the roo has her pouch and why all her children are called Joey.

Shh Don't tell Emma, I cut up her socks

While tidying up nimbleneedles site, I realised on my sock monkey page I actually only had one sockie, so without further ado, here we have a few more lol.I think the giraffe was the most challenging.





I bought her some new socks a few days ago, and while she was looking at them, this little image popped into my head. Emma, who by now recognises my craft glint lol, said I was not to cut them up.

Oops sorry darling, I'll go get you some more tomorrow, I promise.
