Tissue box covers

I've always liked the idea of the tissue box covers so decided to make my own. I wanted my pattern to be an "all in one" without the seams around the top. I also wanted to use the curtain eyelets as the dispensing opening for the tissues. I also wanted the covers to be reversible.
These are my makes:

Crochet Ear Warmer Headbands

So I made the sausage dog draught excluder to keep you room warm. I hae also been busy making these lovely crocheted ear warmers/headbands to keep your cold of your ears.

These are really warm and very cosy to wear. I will be making them in a variety of colours and wool. http://www.elliebjewels.com/

Sausage Dog draught excluder

To help cut the chills in the home I made this sausage dog draught excluder (he is so cute) that will make any room look great.

I created my own pattern and after a few adaptions this is the finish product. Yesterday some of the ladies on my Tuesday sewing class made their own.

I will be selling these on my website in a variety of  fabrics and once I've written the make up instructions I will also be selling the pattern.

More Scottie Dogs - Tuesday sewing class

As my regular Tuesday evening ladies turn up for their weekly sewing class there was cries of delight when they saw the few Scotties I had made. It didn't take very long before a couple of them decided they wanted to make their own.

This lovely black one was made by Eve, she also made it a removable tartan dog coat and will also have a little bell. Eve will be creating a range of coats so you can dress your dog up.

Antje had just recently purchased this herringbone fabric which she used some off to make her dog. The ribbon dog collar also features a little bell.

Finally I made this little tartan one - makes me want to eat Walkers shortbread biscuits.

Group photo - we will be name all the dogs. The tartan one will be called Quincy.

Finally this beautiful flower was made by Elaine sing 100% dupion silk.

Don't forget to add your comments I would love to know what you think of their work.

Scottie Dogs and Swarovski

In the search to create some wonderful gifts for the upcoming Christmas fairs I decided to make these little Scottie dogs.

My favourite is the little ruby one which is made from 100% dupion silk and has got Swarovski crystals for the eyes. Sporting a wonderful dog collar made from Swarovski crystals and a Swarovski heart. This will make a wonderful gift for that special somone.

To be honest I love them all it will be hard to part with them.
