Something different

I wanted to try something a little more “arty”, after all crochet is an art form. A “Let the creative energy flow and see what I could come up with” idea. I started, unlike with the other purses, with the fabric! I loved this fabric – grey with little specs of reds / yellows / peaches here and there....

A special occasion

As you may know, my sister is in hospital following her umpteenth operation. She has a fever but otherwise is doing well. Thanks for all the encouraging messages and the offers of sending flowers – contact me for details if you still want to do that. I’m running an event in my shop from now...

Red Daisy *Card Purse

Keeping it simple

  Sweet ‘n Simple Apologies to my fellow bloggers for the quietness on the WordPress news feed lately. I have been rather unwell with sinusitis and not had much of a chance to do anything except being cemented to my pillow. Prior to the sinusitis, I had made a couple of purses which I have...
