A Peek at the Craft Shop



Hello all you lovely craftmonkeys,

I am sorry to disppoint but I have no finished new quilting projects to present, I am still working on 4 advent calendars but have given up on the idea I might finish them in time for 1 December. I am also working on a custom order quilt which has to take priority of course.

But for today I thought I might show you what I am selling in the paper crafts shop. I don't think I have blogged about it at all since opening.

So here you go, lots of papercrafty things:

Mini card sets





Butterfly stickers



Handmade cards of course



Paper Garlands



And the die cuts





And then some more.

I have to say it has become quite meditative to sit on the couch and punch for hours. I absolutely love it.

I hope you like these.
More updates on all my crafty pursuits are on the way.

Lots of love,
Nadine

Someone's gonna do a lot of eating ..




I just finished a large custom order for 12 placemats. The hand binding alone took me almost 2 hours each, who'd have thought making placemats could take that long. I hope you like them.



Someone will do lots of entertaining, or possibly they have a very large family. I like the thought of a lot of people sitting around a table and using my placemats.



The backs (2 of each colour scheme)



I hope you like them.

Love, Nadine

Blushing twice






Hello all you lovely blog readers,

I just realised I haven't actually shown you the latest Etsy additions. I have listed 2 quilts, both made with the gorgeous designer fabrics from the Blush collection by Basic Grey for Moda. I loved their papers and when I saw they released these as fabric I hunted it down, literally.

I made 2 quilts with it so far.

The Blush in Monaco Quilt





(with organic Monaluna fabrics from the Monaco line and lots of Kona solids on the back)





and the Blushing Poppies Quilt





(with Laura Gunn's Poppies on the back), which is actually a reversible quilt as you go project.





Both of these quilts were made entirely by hand and I love them to bits.

I hope you like them too.

Lots of love,
Nadine xx
