About Me

My photo
I'm a retired primary school teacher, who started paper crafting in 2008, when I had a fancy to make my own Christmas cards. Since then, I have tried all sorts of techniques and styles - and I kind of like them all. I have been lucky enough to be on blog teams and large design teams and to do a bit of freelance demonstrating - and I love the challenge of working with different products. My crafting style is very varied - from junk journaling and art journaling, bookbinding and journal making, to quilting and patchwork - and of course I still make cards. This variety keeps me interested - and my crafty stash growing!! I'm always seeking inspiration for new projects.

Day 5 - A Pile of Ironing!!

Evening!! Doesn't sound very crafty, does it? And to be honest, I hate ironing!! But, this is definitely of the crafting variety - and with my Clover Mini Iron, it was pretty easy too! Particularly the mini bunting!
I managed to finish sewing all the bits and pieces for my (still) unfinished Christmas bunting! Now, you may look at it and think this is not very Christmassy - but I had been aiming for a cream and beige colour theme with wooden ornaments etc! The mini bunting was to go on the tree instead of tinsel etc. I did somewhat achieve it - even without the bunting! Anyway, this fabulous Makower Scandi II taupe collection fit the bill perfectly!!
So, sitting at my craft desk, I managed to get it all ironed ready for attaching to the binding!! Who knows when I'll get round to that!!
Back tomorrow!!

    love the bunting and soft colours. I'm just about to make some for my daughter - she's just started her first job as a primary school teacher & wanted to brighten up her classroom!

      Thank Kim! Bunting will look fab in a classroom! I'm a primary school teacher too! I do supply work - and love it (most of the time). Cxx
