Bag for Mrs Rae
Bought a bag at spotlight, and used Heat n bond ultra to add Mrs Rae's favourite (monarch butterfly) onto the front (cut out from a Canteen bandanna) and her initial on the front - Bianca wanted to make her a Mrs R t-shirt, to match all the other girls - so this was a compromise!Then Bianca made some shrinky panels that read "Dear Mrs Rae, I love you, love from Bianca" and a picture of her. I hole punched them before I shrank them, so I could stitch them on like buttons.
Probably took under an hour all up.

Handmade Xmas decoration swap
My internet group did a hand made Xmas deco swap. These are my doves (one for the tree, one for an 18month old - so extra stitching, and no glittery bits and a chunky olive leaf rather than branch!). After seeing what everyone else is getting, they are feeling a bit inadequate... but off to post tomorrow! (maybe with a candy cane or something!)

Bat Masks
The craze started at creche with a paper cut out mask.... these are made out of felt and ultra bonded together and top stitched - pretty fast and easy to make. Since then I've made another 10 for the creche dress up box. (in lots of diff colours inc pink & purple) is cute to see them all running around with them on!
Letter T's
Made a "letter t'shirt" for B's school friends parties this year - seems to have gone down well. Didn't take photos of them all!

Upcycled shorts/cargos
From a pair of my cargos that had a hole in the knee - a pair of pants and a pair of shorts for Travis. Just two seams on each and either a hem or a waistband!The pants are the current fave's - because of all the pockets!
