Christmas Makes

Felt for Cup cake stand, and Meg. It is sometimes hard to do crafts when you have cats, but so much fun.
Felt covered cardboard, and bias binding around the edges.
The makings for a fabric cup cake pin cushion. The case is silicone.
Some of my purchases to go in the bags for the K.Mart Christmas Wishing Tree. I love Ebay! Just waiting now for the nail files. Each pack will have a nail polish, 2 lipsticks, an eyeshadow pack and an nail file. I will be making 24 packs. Total cost of each pack? $4.50 each. Love it!

Tilli and Meg

Having just bought on ebay and picked up this pram as a gift for my niece, i thought i will allow my kitties to check it out before i clean it.

Too Cute!

Cup Cake Stand

While i am waiting for my ebay purchases to arrive to put into the Christmas bags, I came up with this. A cup cake stand. It will be covered with felt and bias binding.
One of the lovely things we are doing this Christmas is having a Pin Cushion Swap at our cloth Doll Club A.C.D.A. and i am making cup cakes. I thought it would be nice to put it on a stand.
I used 2 plates of different sizes, then made the stem making sure that the lower plate opening is larger than the top one so that it sits nicely.
These are a mix of cakes. Sewn ones with silicone cups and knitted ones.

The pattern for the knitted cup cakes can be found in this magazine. Knitting and Crochet N0 1 Designed by Linda Purdy.

Tilli and Meg

I have not posted pictures of my cats for a while, this is in the afternoon, in the family room Tilli on top, and meg was looking at her from the floor.
Very cute pictures.

My Nephew Joce got married today, The weather was lovely. Jo the Bride was radiant, The other lady in the picture is Joce's sister, Romy, who is expecting her first baby in the first week of January. I love them all to bits! They got married in the City and everything went very smoothly. The reception was at a place called Kokoblack and we had a High Tea. It was a really lovely and special occasion.
