Mass producing.




Little Girls hats.


Girls are also ready for Sweden. The hats are from the market while the ears are homemade. One of the girls did NOT want to be in the picture.

My hat.


I am ready for cold Sweden. This is actually my first and last ever attempt to knit something. Made this 2 years ago. Time to try something else maybe?

Christmas time is coming to town.....





Not a lot of crafting going on here. I am busy cooking and planning for our Swedish Christmas party we are going to have this weekend. Friends and family are coming and the girls are over the moon excited. Then in a week and some odd days we will be leaving for Sweden. We are going to celebrate Christmas in my hometown Karlstad with my family there. Cant wait!

Christmas stockings.

This is what the girls used the Christmas stocking for while I was unpacking all our decorations to be put up. I tried to get her to hang them up but NO, they where for wearing ONLY!

Christmas wreath.



This years Christmas wreath made out of pieces of fabric and ribbons I had at home. The Christmas balls are from my local charity store. I think it turned out very cute!

Kids.

I mean....there are only 2 of them!

A million and one...





This is the result of all that cutting I told you about the other day. Me and the girls took them all to be sold at the home party yesterday. People seemed to like them which is nice!! However, I still have a lot left so if anyone is interested let me know. I am selling them for 5 € plus postage, if they have to be sent out somewhere. Or if you just want to swap....??!! (I also have some of the oil cloth purses for sale, 5 € plus postage).

Purses.

Oil cloth, except for the brown one, purses that I took to the home party to sell. Very simple design, without inner lining.

X-men brooches.

Lots of different colored felt combined with laminated cutouts from a 10 year old X-men comic book.

Vinyl-record-earring-holder.

This was a gift for the hostess of the home party I went to tonight. I think she owns like 300 pairs of earrings so this should keep some of them in place.

Labels.

New labels for my brooches. Thanks D for helping me!

Stitching.

Making brooches so that my fingers are bleeding! The girls and I are going to a friends house on Sunday to try to sell some of my brooches. However, I needed to update the selection a bit so have spend ever second this past week stitching by hand. I really hope they will like them!!

Little hands.

Scrap Brooches.



This is a great way to use up all those little left over pieces of fabric that are taking over my sewing table.
