Juniper mouse


Whilst I was in London with my mum I found a great book in Liberty called 'Christmas crafting in no time' and I made this mouse from the book. I have since seen the book on the Book Peoples web site for a bargin price of £3.99. Could have saved myself a bit of money, but then I wouldn't have spent an enjoyable hour roaming round Liberty with my mum.

Lavender



I had a good crop of Lavender this year and had a look on utube for uses. I made lavender shortbread and Lavender scones and I dried bunches of it by hanging it for two weeks in the airing cupboard. I have made lavender bags with the dried Lavender. My sewing skills are gradually improving and I have gone from hearts to an owl. Looking at the owl pattern I used I think I can adapt it to a cat as well. Then I will have an owl and pussy cat
