October = Busy Busy Busy

Craft sales, church bazaars, harvest festivals...busy month of sewing and selling and no time blog, more of the same this month. Sales have been going really well so I can't complain. Nellie has been at my side at most events, she has a tin of buttons and some waxed linen string, for one dollar she will teach you how to make a bracelet. She's been doing pretty well in the sales department herself. Here are some of the highlights.

two old t-shirts mitts..
this is the first pair, I've also made some in blue/white, purple/apple green, and red/apple green.



they are very comfortable and just right for inside, and unlike a lot of woolen ones they don't get in the way of sewing or knitting.....



bracelet - t-shirt scraps, curtain scraps, scraps of scraps...



A kerchief for Nellie



and Nellie and Joe in their Halloween finery, Joe was a pirate skeleton, Nellie was Lucy from the chronicles of Narnia. Joe's costume was from the costume box, Nellie's is made up of the cloak she helped make, and a women's velvet dress and fleece jumper from a thrift shop. They were very proud of their creations and made out like bandits Trick or Treating.
