Well done for the prizes  :D  I am a happy bunny too, no prizes but I have managed to pay off the first vets bill for the dog refuge with the sales of the keyrings (62€)  Now starting to pay off the 2nd bill (about 80€)  by making bags!

I bought the material about a year ago to make my sister a bag for Christmas, she is still waiting! 
We have friends staying next week, I need to get lots of sewing done this week and then I can clear away the stuff, the table in the living room is covered!  What I need to do is get rid of a bed in the spare bedroom and get a table in there and turn that room into my sewing room.

Ooooh Pamela!!  That's lovely!! ...and on such a lovely fence too  :D
How fab that you're selling things and making money to actually pay bills, very rewarding.

Well here is the picture of my little dolly who came 2nd in the Sunday's show. I've named her after my Mum, who if I was to compare the 2, isn't much taller  :lol: (iccle Ede!)

...and then I'll leave you be and stop demanding attention  :)

Love the teacosy and the hat  :D

Here is my latest doing, a doll to raffle for the refuge.  



Her ´hair´ is made of a bag of ´texture yarns´ I bought them years ago (about 12, I knew they would come in handy one day  :lol: :lol:)  There is assorted threads, ribbon, glittery wool etc in the hair.
