Stewie Griffin - Psycho or Cherub?

The Cutest Psycho Baby that ever Lived (beside our’s)

Hand drawn and ironed flat. Too cute and cuddley.(ok not cuddley), to be ignored. The T-shirt has been taken by my eldest son, the rest of the item’s being formulated are being grabbed by my daughter and her friends at a pace not too dissimilar to light speed!

Why the up-roar over a cartoon? The psychology behind it is vague, however, where there is stardom there is a product that can be made. Mickey Mouse and his band of merry men (and women) Etc.

What a beautiful grumpy face.  To be honest and fair, this little chap has a more endearing personality than our own two year old does at present... Terrible two's indeed, and with much more on top too boot!

Hand drawn replica's of this little chap are being penned by myself for my children and their clothes, bags, pencil cases... you name it, I think my eldest boy mentioned something about a Stewie quilt!  What a challenge, and I do like a good challenge

Another bag completed today, this time with a Roseheyworth School child in mind. Unfortunately the young lady I had in mind wanted Royal Blue in the end... Not a problem as I have plenty of fabrics to choose from, and just so happens that the Royal blues I've got are flannel and brushed cotton, so not only  a pretty bag, but a furry one too!

I have another in the ends of the sewing process, a very vibrant Timeless Treasure Foxy Fabric, sewn with the contrasting dotted multi colour that goes with the set, and then a further block or two of black to bolster the set fabrics as they weren't quite large enough to create a decent size bag with.

As soon as I've figured out how to put the pictures on here from my phone I'll have them for you to view!

Take care

ONE SCHOOL SET IS DONE

As you can see from the photographs it is a lovely red set. One messenger bag, pencil roll and note book with matching cover.

I have appliquéd the school badge onto the front of both the bag and the pencil roll. However, it doesn't show up very well so in future I’ll use a contrasting colour to put the badge upon.

These set’s are currently being sold at £15.50 for the whole thing with note book and pencils in the pencil roll

Without notebook and pencil’s the set’s are £12.00.

In my opinion that isn’t too far a price from what you would pay in the shops  Notwithstanding the huge success of this bag set, in order for me to have anything like income from the craft fayre on Sunday in Cwmbran, I need to pull my finger’s out and get some more made up.

In the mean time, I am sleeping,

Creatures, pen rolls and a maxi dress

Despite being in so much psin that I feel nauseous, I have still managed to give life to Sweety Star, create another pencil roll with no school badge and make Sians maxi dress!

And put dinner on the table! BTW, that was the first sit down proper meal I have eaten for weeks. I don't eat, I grase and that is all.

Fingers crossed more creations will be born of inspiration later today x

I am enjoying the route my head is taking me on right now, even my eldest daughter is getting involved by thinking up bag designs x

Take care

A new beginning?

I am penning this whilst sat in bed.... on my mobile phone no less...!

If it works, brilliant as it means I'm no longer tied to the pc x

Creature Creates In Need of New and Loving Homes

Creature Creates Born and ready for Adoption!

I have made a few of the little ones- The Little BOC Creature Creates.

My goodness me they are so lovely, to the point that I am naming each one.  Not really a good sign that the maker creator is so attached to the product that she is naming them… but then it could also be a little bit of personality added to the creatures, instead of anonymous stuffed bits of fabric.

We have thus far in our little farm, some cat’s, a star-fish, two whales, and in the process of being born is a dog… Not just any do though, this one is a female Rottweiler!  You would never guess how I did that one!

So for now, I bid you farewell, and get on with patching up a dog
