When everything seems to be going smoothly.................

you can gaurantee that one of the kids will get sick!!!!  So thats what happened in our house over the last 14 days.  I haven't been able to sew or knit, and the list of things to do is growing rapidly!!

One thing I have completed is the cot blanket and matching woobie that we are sending off for auction.  The beautiful Bonny from Bonnibuns is running an auction to help raise money for Nicola.  Read Nicolas story here

The blanket is purple and aqua coral fleece with a backing of froggy microfleece.

Once the little fella is back in bed (so tonight!)  I will be finishing the boosters for the medium and  large tester nappies and hopefully getting the mediums at least pinned together!  The shells for the larges are finished.  I will explain them in another post when tester nappies have been sent out.

Cheers

in between mummy duties!!

With the little man sick again as well as first birthdays and christmas fast approaching it seems like forever since I sat down at my machines.

So today was that day.  Between cuddles from my sick little monkey and quick trips to the local spotlight I managed to make quite a few sets of baby wipes

Here is the link to the facebook page, where there are photos and prices.  Just comment on the photo if you want that particular set.

Made with Luff facebook page

I hope you are all well and that you are prepared for the festive season.

Love and fluffy goodness
