Today's Quilt tops from Ebay


So I've been contemplating making a quilt. For some reason I've never gotten around to it yet. But I just love looking at quilt tops on Ebay. Some of them are a bit naff, but there are some beauties like this one.

Last FM

I was told about Last FM by the lovely Melanie. Thought I would share it with you all as it's my new favourite internet attraction. Last FM is an online radio (kind of) site. You can log in and place the name of your favourite artist and it will play you tracks from similar artists (amongst its other attractions). Nothing like broadening your taste in music! Trust me, you'll become just as addicted as I have become in the past few hours.

Cat Cocoon


So I've been thinking about getting a cat for ages but I have currently reside in an apartment on the second floor. So I'd worry about my cat being up too high and all that jazz. But I do know that said cat would love this.... How cool would my future cat be? How empty would my wallet be?

How great! I SO want one of these... Big Man Tourist by Mimi Kirchner. Available for sale here on Etsy. Make sure you check out her tattooed men on her blog as well. So fabulous!

In the making


Thnaks so much for all your wonderful comments about my brooches.It's always a challenge to come up with something new that I like to make as much as you like too.I'm a bit of a perfectionist at heart... At the moment I am working on some more lovely brooches to head off to other stores around Melbourne. It is my aim to have some for sale on Etsy pretty soon too. I will announce this on the blog as soon as I get my act into gear!

Finished!




This is my very first Biscornu. It's little and I have yet to attach the button in the centre. I think I'm addicted!

Brooches continued..


I've finally finished my little cross stitch brooches. I'm going to pop them on Etsy for sale a bit later this week. Shall keep you posted.

Biscornu


Today I have been making a Biscornu. It's a little eight sided pin cushion. I found the pattern via Own Two Hands. The cross stitch element took a little bit of time but I'll finish it and post it later today.
