Happy Little Things

 Hello again lovely readers............here we are at the beginning of september already...not sure how that could happen so fast....lots of happy little things are being made here and i am so enjoying these crafty times.....

 .............first this little flower applique pincushion, made in a boxy shape and decorated with a liberty fabric covered button and a little stitchery..........

 .............next is another little fish for my shoal..........

 ............lots of people asked if there is a pattern for the little fish...there will be one soon...

 ............and here is one of my new favourites....a pentagon ball on a nautical theme....love these fabrics and adding little surface stitches to create extra interest and texture..........

 .........in the evenings i am happily hand quilting my heartstrings quilt.........

 ...........it's a nice one to hand quilt as the squares are fairly small and easy to work....

 ..............below is a little peek at a woodland creature...the little pastel deer is part of a set which is my project in this month's crafts beautiful magazine here...........you can make a deer, a mushroom, a tree, an owl, and a bunny to hang on the christmas tree or to add to gift bags......i'll show more pictures of them soon........
