  • Throwback to when I made my wedding bouquets. I still have mine in a decorative vase brightening up my bathroom. My grandmother was given my matron-of-honours bouquet whilst my matron-of-honour got a compilation bouquet made from all the table decoration mini bouquets.

  • My SIL taught me how to spin over the holidays. Now I need to make up a niddy noddy to get this yarn off and start all over again because god this is relaxing to do.

  • Throwback! Miwaks’ bonetail weighs in at 2kg but thanks to the lumbar belt feels relatively light and has a lovely bounce.

  • Holiday throwback! When your paws are too big for the chip packet

  • Completed shiba plush, done with NazFx’s pattern. NFS. This chonk already has a home.

  • Completed double tree frogs decoupage. Again a photo to show the effect from the way it’s meant to be viewed, and a video to show the full effect of the paper tole technique.

  • Main forms have been sewn. Next steps are to appliqué the inner ear details & sew, then assemble everything.

  • I’m on a roll, currently doing up the companion print for the tree frog. This one is slightly more annoying as there’s lots of tucking instead of straight overlay.

  • Completed tree frog paper tole. Time taken was 4 sittings of about 3-4 hours each.

  • I’ve almost done with all the plush feature details. I am using quality wool felt & everything has been hand sewn down using a teensy fairy stitch. I think this mimics machine embroidery pretty damn well honestly!
