Stitch 'n' Scrap

Eek, I'm a slack blogger as it's been 4 weeks exactly since my last post! I still haven't taken photos of the potholders but with school hols, sickness and absolutely awful lighting because of inclement weather I didn't get around to it. Have to add it to my projects for today along with some sewing projects that need doing.
After fruitless efforts to start a scrapping blog I've decided to just use this one for both sewing and scrapping. There's also the personal and internet times that cause difficulty with blog keeping so I think less is best! Anyway as I occasionally use stitching on my papercrafts it still fits in with the blogname :P.
In keeping with it's new purpose I've posted a pic of the latest layout I've created. The main title are the initials of the school and the pic is of my eldest daughter, layout is done in school colours. Method - layered papers, chipboard flower, saying and title, button, foam mounting tape under sub title. Sorry about quality but it was taken under indoor lighting. TFL :).

Potholders.....finally :)

Here are the potholders that Monika and I made for the potholder swap. Monika made me this one, isn't it gorgeous!

and I made Leanne this one

I made my mum one for her birthday but forgot to take a photo. That will have to be for another post as I seem to be acquiring a few family orders for these so will group them together.
Have a nice weekend everyone :).

Tuffett Swap

As I'm having difficulties posting photos on a forum I'm in I thought I'd best make an effort to keep this current, even though blogging and I don't compliment each other :P. At least then I can link members to here. Also this is my first photo post and I should have posted the potholder swap before it as now they are out of order!! Oh well, I still need to take a photo of the potholder I received so you'll just have to be in suspense :)!  It is worth waiting to see though.
The floral tuffett is the one I sent to Mary and the tuffett with the cute little hexagons on it is the one Mary made me.

Little Miss Muffett was here before this multiple legged party crasher arrived :D. If you want some of these, or other cute little charms for craft at great prices, go to www.my2angels.net . Yes, I still have to figure out how to post links and this one should be on a scrapping blog I haven't started....yet :P.

Aren't these little hexagons great! I want to try making these sometime in the future. A bit bigger though as this tuffett is 4" x 4". Seems a shame to stick pins and needles in it!

Back Again

I'm having another go at running a blog. Past efforts have failed as blogger doesn't like me.
