My Creative Space... a day late

It's been that kind of week. The start of the week was spent in a state of blind panic (in my role of solo-office-chick on the busiest days of the week). The rest of the week has been spent trying to catch up on my own neglected secret-squirrel work and trying to be a good Mummy (after a few days of being quite the opposite) .... and I haven't been creating much at all.

At the risk of boring readers rigid with more craft projects by that child I keep banging on about - I only have these photos to show.... so I'm showing them.

Dolls clothes were sewn (with help) on the sewing machine. Buttons were sewn on with a real (not-too-sharp embroidery) needle. In other words, the indoctrination programme is going according to plan.

BTW - That's paint on the background....!

And those Ink&Spindle girls had better watch their backs... there's a new kid on the textile design block....

...who's still trying to get to grips with the subtleties of armhole shaping in her patternmaking technique.


I've no idea where she learned such a slap-dash approach to garment making...?!

Head on over to Kirst's for more creative spaces.

    Ahh, a textile designer in the making! Love it, I would buy that print! The doll's gear is very cool too. You must be a proud mama.

    It seems the indoctrination plan is going very well. She's a lucky girl to have access to all that crafty gear, good genetics and full-time access to a very good instructor. She definitely has the potential to go very, very far.

    Frankly I'd be ripping off that floral design and flogging it quick smart! What a little talent. Love the indoctrination.

    I guess there is no fighting genetics! She's a lucky girl to have a mother who - while may not be perfect every week (and I ask... "who is?") - takes the time to allow her to explore and create and learn and have fun.

I LOVE to read your comments and they brighten my day. I can't respond unless your profile has an email address attached, though... And some days I simply don't have time to respond.... but I respond in a telepathic sort of way to each and every comment.
