I dont know I hibernate for a few weeks and theres all these new things.
I made practically everything apart from the dresses and vry proud of myself I am too specially as they were so original and turned out so well.
I need a new project now.

I really wish I could make my own clothes. Deep inside I think it's a talent that's lurking and it won't be long before I buy a sewing machine!

I agree with Emma Bron! X-stitch is so easily addictive

You could do something like this for your babies room:

I've got a friend who loves Pooh

I'm not a huge fan of his, but every time I see a Pooh kit I think how much she'd like it!!

I also love making my own things. I'm feeling a bit deflated at the moment as I thought I was being very clear in delegating stuff for the wedding out to various people and now I having nothing to do myself

So I've decided to make the table favours. I've seen quite a nice idea in one of the bridal magazines and am going to try and copy it.

If you're not a fan of Pooh Bear and his friends, then you could do Beatrix Potter type things. There are some really lovely things at Sew and So (Hmm, I'm beginning to sound like I work for them!!) like height charts, samplers, birth samplers, latch hook rugs, cushions, pictures. I'm looking forward to making a few when we start baby-making
