Snow Joke! a bonus craft day....

Yesterday down it came...
The schools shut and the tiny lanes were unpassable, 
So what's a crafting, crochet addicted, immature, Mama to do?
Hoovering? washing? ironing?......Nope.

?

Craft......Thats what!

First up...."Donna" was finished
 so called after Donna Flower whose lovely vintage fabric she is wearing as a dress.


I love this fabric do you?
she has a crocheted collar, cardi and shoes....


Next another of these


Being pesky....


and finally another of these 


My newest Needlecase

Oh happy days.....

    2. I will be your very first customer then for one of those slugs! Too cute and far less likely to eat my hostas than their live cousins!

  10. I agree completely. What else would you do on a snow day?! I've finished loads of stuff off.
    Love the slug. If only they were all that harmless.

  12. ~ How very HIP HOP, Donna is!
    Clever YOU! I have a elder sister called Donna and she is lovely too.
    I wonder do you do big girl dresses in that wonderful material?
    I think you can guess WHO for!
    Sending kind thoughts, Love Maria x

  13. That cowgirl fabric is great ... my horse fanatic daughter would love this! Your doll is so funky with her black black hair and red checked leggings. It's wonderful that you had an unexpected day to work away at sewing and crochet :) (I wish!). I wish too that we had such cute little slugs in our garden ... can you imagine these under every flower?! Here's to more snow days ... Wendy
