This is beautiful, I love the scrolly bits.

I have a sewing machine with a free motion foot (think that's what its called). Means that you can move the fabric in any direction. Takes a bit of getting used to and I broke quite a few needles the first time I used it! It's great though. When I first started I quilted by hand and that really is a lob our of love as it takes forever!

Wow did you do that on a standard size machine then? I have a free motion foot but just find the fabric too big to physically move that well.

not as intricate as many of the watermelon carvings I've just looked at on google images but I was challenged by a friend to do a death star (star wars), and I can't turn down a challenge!

I also needed it to be whole so I can feed it with vodka    - 2nd pic is the start of the process



I was also challenged earlier in the year to make a rubik's cube cake... 3rd picture   


There seems to be a food and alcohol theme to my craftiness

and the other side to rubiks cake...

That melon looks brilliant.  When you've finished feeding it with vodka you can send me a slice  ...

... love the cake

With the teddy bear, dog and cat keyrings I have made  I have taken around 70€  so that has paid off one of the refugio´s  vets bills.  I am having a break from keyrings and turning to shopping bags now- just using the material I have in the house, so it will be pot luck!

I love anything crafty!  I dabble in a bit of sewing (recently made 28 superhero capes for a birthday party), knitting, card making & scrapbooking.  My main focus lately though is cake making and decorating.  I'm currently doing a non conventional wedding cake for this sat, but here's some of my other cakes.  For some reason don't seem to have photos of anything else!

And this one is my favourite!

Oh Cake lady they are lovely!

I am so jealous of you people with a steady hand!!!

[Oliveview]

What fantastic cakes, I have a friend who makes cakes too, so clever.

Here is bag no.1  I took it to the refugio this afternoon as I had to deliver the keyrings, Beatriz was taking some pups to the vet, so she took the bags I have made, she said there might be someone there to buy them!

This is the other bag they took:

Wow, there are some very talented people on here.

I dabble from time to time in crafts, and last Christmas I made some printed aprons, printed gift and bottle bags, festive stockings, flannel cupcakes, etc which I sold for a local charity.  I am planning to sell the unsold items at my daughter's school fayre this Christmas.

[Oliveview]

They are good though
