A busy time

Sullivan is Thomas mad at the moment. He has tantrums if he has to wear anything other than his Thomas Tshirts (although he seems to be happy with Mr Men this weekend, saying Bum Bum and pointing to his tshirt with Mr Bump on it). I bought him these jimjams from Sainsbury's yesterday - it was so busy, they even tannoyed that they had every till
open and would serve us as quickly as possible. It's not even that busy at Christmas! - He didn't want to get ready for bed but when I told him he had new jimjams he was up the stairs faster than a supersonic rocket. He loves them and has been carrying them around all day today. At least we know what to get him for his birthday...


On wednesday I attended an event hosted by NiftyThrifty at Lillico's here in Barnstaple. It was a great event featuring a diverse range of Devon based designer makers. I did really well, having only 4 bags left at the end of the evening. It was the first time I had sold my felted bags down here and it was great to know that people like the things I produce. I'm surprised that this bag didn't go though, but Halloween isn't such a big even over here as it is in the States, yet!


I'm next selling at the Barnstaple Children's Centres Christmas shopping evening on 13th November at St Johns Hall by Tesco and then on 22nd November in Barnstaple Pannier Market. Drop by and have a look!
Anybody getting Christmas excited yet...?

I am getting Christmas excited! Hoping to be making things for presents this year. I actually bought a bauble today, for a secret Christmas Swap I am partaking in. It is filled with six, 1m lengths of pretty ribbon and will look lovely on a tree. Maybe we need to search out some fillable clear baubles!?

Oh and of course, I just love that delicious little man. His jimjams are so cute!

Cute bags!

Cute jammies, too. I guess both boys and girls go through that phase... everything has to be a certain way, or it doesn't get worn. I had a thing for skirts that flare out when you spin. Which wasn't so great for my mother because I liked to play in the mud...
