My Creative Space



Yes..more buttons! A return trip to my favourite opshop unearthed a few more special buttons and the original button tin. Yay!


Isn't it a busy time of year?? I haved been having that oh my god feeling when I think about all that I want to achieve over the next few weeks. I have three things due for my class, our garlic needs harvesting as of next week and then there's the makers market. (Oh, and a family to look after!) I must remember to breathe, calm down, breathe.
Today I am in market mode and it's time to make some more bunnies.

This means a trip to the Creswick Woollen Mills to choose some more blanket offcuts. They always have something new and it's fun to try and match the patterns with vintage fabrics. The fawn coloured one is a favourite, it seems to work well with the softer colours of old pillowcase materials.


Laid out like this the bunny shapes, without ears, remind me of paper chain dolls.

One bunny has ears, and a pretty blue skirt.



I think the dark tweed will be a boy bunny. Knitted green overalls maybe?


This little patchwork piece is also bunny related. It is for the Daylesford Maker's Market...I wonder what it will be?


Are you having a creative day?
