MY PICTURES OF MY OFFERINGS NOW PLEASE DONT LAUGH

Hello im back again with the pictures i said i would show you now please dont laugh im not actually selling my things but im building up the courage to show them and im really nervous i have never done anything like this before and i really havent got a clue what to expect so here are some pictures
some of the things you have probably seen before on my blog but i have been busy stitching a few more rugs and making some screens and making scenes on tiles i also finished off my tea shop but im really not happy about the dolls inside i think i'll probably remove them i just need some chain to link up the posts outside the shop and i might add a few more flowers to the roof.


Here is my conservetory and garden i did this a few months ago but out of sheer panic im taking it along as i dont have time to build anything else right now







Here are some of my carpets and rugs im taking along to display





One of my filled hutches i did a while ago my other one is inside the teashop



Bathroom scene on a 6x6 inch tile



My cosy corner scene on a 6x6 inch tile



Outside the Teashop i like these dolls better



Outside the conservetory




Outside the Teashop im trying out my setup but this table is smaller than the one i will have




There is also a pillar seat(i think thats what its called) with three seats in one i made this and im really pleased with it whoohoo lol... There are also a couple of screens i made and some mats made from string. These are my ropey looking offerings i have to display at least i know the others there will have plenty to marvel at so my table wont be lingered over too long so no worries there lol....






Inside my Teashop i dont like the dolls they will be taken out









This is a House paul has made im trying to get him to finish it in time to take along too

OH MY GOD IM DISPLAYING HELLLLLLLLPPP!!

Talk about in at the deep end i joined a mini group in the village i live a few weeks ago and was told about a show their doing next month so i was just going to go and watch and maybe buy some goodies but i have been informed i have to have a table and show some of my mini makes so i am just so nervous i have taken part in mini swaps for a few years but i have never displayed my work and i really dont think im ready for it YIKES!!!!! we were all asked to create a scene on a tile and then a filled chair and also make a tri fold screen and display whatever else we want to and its for charity parkinsons disease so i dont mind embarassing myself for that.
Well today after attending my nephews school show they did Robin Hood and it was great i got home and made a start on my homework lol...below is a picture of my scene on a 6x6 inch tile i added some of my needlework i have made and im hoping for the best that its good enough i feel like a kid at school lol...so do you think i pass??

Credit goes to paul for the lovely photography i think i'll get him to take all my pictures from now on as im so bad at it thanks paulie xx



So tomorrow i have to do my filled chair and screen i will be back to ask your opinions

Im wondering if someone reading my blog can help me im looking for some pretty handbag and hat and bonnet patterns i would be very grateful if anyobody knows where i can find them free on the internet so far i havent been very lucky in my search.
please if you know of any could you let me know i would love to try them.

Its exactly one year tonight since i had my stroke or Extradural haematoma as they are now calling it it doesnt really matter what its called the damage was all the same i have been pretty good all day i havent really thought about it too much but i'll be glad when tomorrow comes all the same i need a distraction maybe i'll go and stitch something.

WHAT I'VE BEEN UP TO

Hello again
I have had a busy few days with appointments and stuff but i did manage to get some mini projects in between i used my chart i designed to make some bed covers


Heres part of the chart i used its in an earlier posting if you would like to try it i used 18 count aida although it would look better in a higher count but my eyes are not good enough but im pleased with the result anyway.



Heres the bed cover made up and displayed in Lola's room in red and green. She has adopted one of the families cats the bed is a comfy place to sleep.








I liked it so much i stitched another for the other attic room in pink and green and one of the other cats also like to sleep on it lol...
