Win a purse!


Hello, this is a "practice purse" and I'm giving it away! I do plan to make many more and hopefully practice will make perfect! I will draw a random winner in 2 weeks (Sunday 13th of September). Just leave a comment after this post re how much you would pay for this purse at a craft market, it measures 4.5" x 5.5". For an extra entry, blog about this little giveaway and then post a second comment. Do you like my new labels? Thanks so much for dropping in! Leah

More on Madeit!

Hello, I am planning to buy some of
these just not sure how many I will need! They would make fantastic affordable gifts, which are always great to have in the cupboard especially with Christmas coming! I must start sewing, we are having a little family getaway to sell at Murrabit next weekend, which should be fun! Have a wonderful weekend! Leah

Lots more to share!

Hello, I made these 2 t-shirts last week for 2 special little girls, one was my Gracie of course. Grace wore hers to the Mallee Almond blossom Festival.




We had a fantastic day, the blossoms were gorgeous, Grace flatly refused to let me take a nice picture of her wearing her new top in the blossoms! I still think that I will print and scrap these photos anyway! I have more pics to share tomorrow. I hope that you had a wonderful weekend! Leah

More on Magnolia Square

Hello again, I also met they lovely Michelle from Kids with Crayons at Magnolia Square. I loved Michelle's stall and bought lots of little goodies for myself including 2 of these magnets. I can't wait to send Michelle some of my own children's artwork to turn into magnets (I'd love a pendant too) The little illustrations really make me smile, they are so precious!! I am taking some of Michelle's creations to playgroup too, so hopefully we will run a Kids with crayons fundraiser soon. Our stall did really well, thanks to all those inquiring, I am still filling orders, so I must be off! Leah

Lots of inspiration!

Hello, here is our little stall at Magnolia Square, I was so not happy with our set up! I am thinking very hard about how I will display things next time, it's all trial and error I suppose!
There were so many inspirational stalls to look at and lovely people offering us advice and ideas, so we can only improve! Here is one of my favourite stalls Kate was lovely too! I do have lots more to share, have a lovely Monday! Leah
