I am going to moan (albeit silently!) I am loosing my voice… the first wave of winter chill bugs have roosted in my throat !
So i am feeling a little sorry for myself! I have been busy tiding up some of my work areas … they sorely need it after all the show and book and C&C prep I have done lately .

a tidied up sewing desk .. I even dusted the desk top !
I am also posting some of the pieces from Mondays Create and Craft show … these pieces used the Sari Ribbon and the needle felting kit.

We have some alternate colourways on the craftynotions site.And finally the scarf.. yes I did iron all the strips before hand…

Scarf length made from Sari ribbon
one lovely lady emailed into the show to ask if I finished all the ends of neatly! you could do but it would be very time consuming but probably worth the time investment if you could as the edges would have a more elegant finish… all I had time to do was to cut . When the Sari ribbon is washed ( by Hand ) the fabric softens and you gain a lovely musch softer handle to the fabric.
Just to let you all know we are at the Norwich Bead and Textile Fair on Sunday the 30th Oct and at the Hobby craft event at the NEC from thusday to Sunday. We are on Stand B19….. so hopefully we will see you there and I will have reGained my voice .. other wise I will be communicating with hand gestures !
Have fun , behave ..but not too much !
