Red and Black Emo Punk Cat


Monday again, can't believe the days go so quickly and it is March already. I was commissioned to make another emo/punk cat and I did this over the weekend. I love it in red and black. Hopefully the girl who receives it as a present will love it too. I am in the process of designing a bat blankee. When my son Cameron told me this was a good idea I said umm... who would want a bat for their baby? His first answer was Eva!!!!

This my daughter Amelia dressed as Portia the Pirate Princess on World Book Day for school. Thanks to Eva for the pirate jacket and to Cameron for making Squark the parrot out of an old sock and some feathers and also the hat. She's too cute!!!

Have a look at this. It's my son Cameron's animation called Egg Wrestling. What goes on inside the mind of an artistic 15 yr old. Not sure whether myself or my husband take responsibility for the eclectic music choice!!!!

Emo Cat


Monday again, I have uploaded a photo of my Emo cat the colours and stripes don't look that great in the photo but the purple is really a lovely rich emperor purple and with the black makes the perfect emo statement. I have made this cat in black and white as well which looks equally good. Maybe more pirate than emo in black though! I was really pleased to sell some of my items to a local craft shop and also have started selling on Ebay again. Keep fingers crossed for future.

Good Morning, Here is a little bag that I made yesterday. The design is based on a yellow tulip which hopefully will remind everyone that Spring is on its way! I have made this bag in a lovely purple colour which unfortunately does not look detailed enough in a photo. You can easily fit a cream egg inside and that is just what I will be doing for Easter presents.

Getting ready for Easter and I am busy making egg cosies for all the family and friends. This is the newest addition, lamb chop. He is made from black and white acrylic wool so can be washed if he gets egg on his face! These little egg cosies don't take very long to make but like most of my creations there is always someone in my family, usually Amelia, who wants the one that I have just crocheted. I will just have to keep going and as the weather is terrible again I will be making stuff all day today.

As I am still hopping about like Peg leg Pete after my ankle injury I went crochet mad yesterday and produced these two little cuties. Pink and white bunny blanket square and blue and white cotton bunny blanket square. They are soft and just the right size for little hands to cuddle. Also I have a confession I was a "blankee" child and would have loved one of these myself. There I have said it out loud................
