Pretty Little Things

Hello again lovely readers........some pretty little makes to show you today....first is a dottie drawstring bag which i made as a gift.............for myself :)......
......i just adore this gorgeous fruit label fabric from atsuko matsuyama and have been hoarding it for ages....then i spied it in my sewing room next to a piece of aqua tilda dotty fabric and decided to make a little bag with the two fabrics....the dotty one is perfect for the lining.....
...........the bag cords and stops are from rose garden patchwork as usual.......
......i'm using the little bag at the moment to hold a small piece of knitting that i'm working on....a rabbit cardigan for one of the sugar bunnies......
.........also i've been enjoying cross stitching lots of little ornaments recently.......
.......this tiny merry christmas ornament had little bells attached......
.....and i made some tags with parts of the design too.......the pattern and instructions for these is in my etsy shop link in side bar.....
........feeling a little bit festive now....but not too much yet.....
.....last weekend we met up with our dear daughters and their families and had a lovely walk at dunham massey, through the park in the bright november sunshine......
.........seeing deer there is always a pleasure....they are so tame and fascinating to see close up.......
......and finally here are some more little makes.....patchwork trees in pink and green fabrics, and a green bird too......patterns are fabric button trees and fabric birds also in my etsy shop as before......

 .....thanks so much for visiting me here dear readers and for your kind comments.....wishing you a happy week with plenty of cosy crafty times.....take care lovelies.......peace and love......back soon xxxxxxxxxxx

Beautiful park. All your work is beautiful. The aqua polka dots and print fabric are good together.

So many delicious and sweet items. Love your dottie bag and lovely cross-stitches. Such cute tags to attach to gifts - they are a gift in themselves. I see you are still enjoying lovely Fall weather. Wishing you a wonderful weekend, Helen!
