Make it day

Well today i ended up making a few things for xmas and for the stall im attending on the 20th November.

I started off making a bend santa that you put on a little peg board then you put wax paper over the top and iron it till it melts:)

 Then i did a stain window one that is santa, I remember doing these ones as a kid, i use to LOVE them, so it brought back memories when i did this one today
 Doesnt he look cute:)

Then after the kids had a sleep i got out some iceblocks and put them in the bath tub outside for them to play with as ice.  Was lots of sticky fun

These are the iceblocks that i use for play, cheap enough
Here is Lukas sharing the bath with the iceblocks, his idea of playing was picking them up and throwing them, he thought this was very funny

Then i decided to do some sewing, i made another two skirts

This one is a big one, i cant remember the measurements but it fits a 4 year old, it ties up and looks great on.
 Dont have a photo of anyone wearing it as it falls off my daughter and yup i did try it on my son too, might have to get photos for tomorrow lol.

Then i tried a new way of making a skirt using elastic and ribbon, i have never done this before and well it took me about 10 goes to get the elastic in right, then i made it too small, but i think it might fit a 6 month old, or a doll i guess.  Its cute cause its small.


I will give it another go tonight to see if i can make a bigger one.  Hopefully it will work lol.

I did go shopping today for xmas sewing stuff, i had to get some felt and satin to make the kids stockings.
