Little jobs

In my creative space this week:
A pile of prints ~ Destined to be my very first weeny quilt for the smallest poppet’s December birthday. It’ll go with a thrifted dolls cradle I’m repainting. I think these fabrics made up in a freeform quilt style would be sweet. I’m just waiting for my copy of Patchwork Style (ie: moral support) and I’ll dive in. Yikes, did I say December?!
Yummy catalogues ~ Sitting underneath the acorn munching squirrels, these are the yummiest I’ve seen in ages. Freshly delivered… actually forget ‘freshly’; if something is posted 2nd class from the UK it has to have spent time trudging over the Himalayas on the back of a disgruntled yak. Anyway, they finally arrived. One quick flick through the pages and all yak spit on the packaging was forgiven. Ahh Toast! Contented sigh!
Plans and schemes. ~ We are planning a move in six months and the whole flat has to be tarted up. I love this palette. The grey background in these shots is our couch and I’m thinking that zingy mustard could be the perfecto cushion colour. Cushions don’t scare me anymore. I’ve thrown myself at it before but now Lara has posted this, should be easy peasy.

And sketchy birds. ~ I haven’t made up my mind on what to put on the cradle ends; but birds have been the frontrunner so far… although butterflies may be making a come back, unless of course dinosaurs burst forward from the back of the pack… Oh, lets face it, it’s still anyone’s race!
Head on over to Kirsty’s for gazillions more creative spaces.
