Making lots and lots...

I am doing my 1st ever craft fair soon so I am making lots, heres one of the items I have completed and took photos of..

New makes and new hair :)

Big make update...upcycled clothes, rag rug WIP, miss sally the dreadlocked dolly and zingy men :) very very pic heavy

Miss Sally the now dreadlocked dolly...before and after pics :)

Newest rag rug in the making...

And lots of upcycled clothes made from old Tshirts, tank tops, dresses etc

Made from an old fitted tshirt into a shrug..

 Old camisole top into a skirt...

 Old XL tshirt I bought for a pound into a fun long top with crochet straps :)...

 Old large tshirt bought for a pound made into a fun top...

 My old redundant nirvana tshirt went from an unused sentimental tshirt into a dress I can wear :)...

 This floral skirt was a dress that did not suit me, just a few snips and a piece of elastic makes a much nicer skirt ...

 One of hubbys old tshirts into a pretty slob out top :)...

I really need a sewwing machine as handsewing takes forever! And then i can make even more upcycled clothes :)

New life, fresh start.

We have recently decided to give up bricks and mortar and bought a static caravan to live here https://www.facebook.com/MKsWillowFarm with friends :)

So a new area, new home, new school for the kids...but it will be so much better than being tied to an area we are not happy in at all and to a house that costs a fortune to live in.

The caravan we have bought is a fixer upper...so needs cleaning, painting, new carpet.And a woodburner to keep us warm.

A couple of weeks in the tent, lots of elbow grease on the caravan and a better more fun free life  for us and the kids :)

But I have managed to squeeze in some time to keep crocheting my green granny mandala..

And I really need to make more of these...

I will try to get round to doing a pos of everything I have been up to...like making EDF zingy men, giving a dolly dreadlocks, dressing up my dog etc etc ;)

whoops...forgot again...

well i forgot allabout this blog again...but in the last coupla months i have made oodles of crochet stuff, made upcycled clothes etc...only have a few photos though :/

Cushions :)

I made the flower one from a pattern I was linked too and the yellow one is a jumper I shrunk given a new life :)

Food! Glorious food!

Some crochet play food I made for my little girl, and to use up some scraps, these took a whole week!!!

Too much to do, too many ideas, wayyy too little time!

I have been crocheting like crazy but got distracted by some Ami play food for my daughter. I never realised how long amigurumi takes too make...like bloody ages :O LOL.

But I have so many ideas whirring around in my head, a massive to do pile and a buying more wool ban.

So that limits me to the to do pile and finding projects that uses up my massive stash of wool up.


Soooo far on my I am gonna do list is,

Finish my blanket on my bed
Make some cushions
Make a couple more tops/waistcoat thingy
Make some granny squares
Make myself a bag
And will probably end up making some more play food for Little Z 'cos she loves it!



I really must get round to uploading the pics of the playfood- another one for my to do list LOL.

I get bored rather easily so tend to flit from project to project and this time I wanted to make something fun.

And it was fun but it took sooooo long...next time I will make something with a few less limbs lol

Freeform crochet leaves wallhanging

 I have just finished this...lotsa leaves hanging from a piece of wood I found on a walk :)

Sooooooo many ideas, so many projects on the go ...so little time !!

Ok My new years resolution was to not buy anymore wool and get through my massive stash....


So I have been making things constantly and have a lot of freeform projects in mind :D
