Mama Bird's Creations: Baby Quilt
http://mamabirdcreations.blogspot.com/2009/02/baby-quilt.html
A place where I can show off my sewing, knitting, and other crafty escapades. Friday, February 6, 2009. So I have been crafting, but not updating, my bad :(. I will try and remedy that for 2009 though, as there is a lot on the agenda! So to begin, I present you with my first ever quilting project, using a tutorial found in a Little Treasures magazine. though I made a bassinette sized one rather than the suggested cot size (will suit the new baby better at least to start with). Auckland, New Zealand.

Even the cat is ginger! Family, crafting, learning, growing. Friday, February 27, 2009. It's been a while. Finished my first 'Oriental Lily' dress. Here is the recipient modelling it. It was quite an enjoyable knit, though i was a little panicked i was going to run out of yarn. That would have been a HUUUUGE disaster! Also have 98% finished some longies for H(11mths - walking! Am leaving the legs to finish closer to winter as he may not need them for at least another 8-10 weeks and is growing like a weed!

Even the cat is ginger! Family, crafting, learning, growing. Saturday, August 30, 2008. Baby on my back. Baby H(5mths) on my back in the mei tai. He giggled when i put him up there (freaking out the husband when i superman'd him over my shoulder! I watched a 'how to' video on you tube. Still, it's one thing to do it bending over your bed, and another to try it on the street! Sunday, August 17, 2008. Some mothers do have 'em. I5 drew this lovely picture for me last week. It's of our cat Poppy doing a wee.

Even the cat is ginger! Family, crafting, learning, growing. Sunday, December 14, 2008. Today I stayedd in my pj's, didn't shower, nor do my hair or even wash my face. I spent the day making this for a friends little girl. Getting my boy to model this for me cost me the promise of a treat tomorrow. It just looked so wrong on him. Must be the boyish frame or the way he stands or something! Saturday, December 6, 2008. Tuesday, December 2, 2008. Made from my home dyed wool (bendigo). I can't even begin to t...

The cd wotzit thingy isn't working and i can't reload my camera software. Tis a pain in the neck! I have finished objects to show! Currently i'm working on a hoodie for H(16mths) for next winter. Knitted on flats! It's got all sorts to keep it interesting, cables, pockets, etc. I'm on a mission to read childrens classics to I6. So far we've read;. The magic faraway tree.

Even the cat is ginger! Family, crafting, learning, growing. Sunday, November 30, 2008. Our day at the beach. What a day. So exhausted. Taking 3 kids and all their changes of clothes and drinks and nappies etc is full on. I felt like a pack mule. The kids had a real blast. They played in the fountains, splashed in the surf, scored a pony ride and an icecream. C3's first pony ride. Nana got a great photo of the kids sitting on the camel. It's the easy life for some eh Mr H? The big kids with their dad.

I'm leaving these like this until closer to winter incase he has a growth spurt! This photo dosn't do them justice. They are super cool if i do say so myself. I love 'em. I will have to do a hoodie to go with it. Here is the simple dress i did for I5 a couple of weeks ago;. Excuse the yucky HSM tatts! Friday, January 16, 2009. New dress for Miss 5.

Even the cat is ginger! Family, crafting, learning, growing. Sunday, March 15, 2009. I'm really pleased with this. It's not perfect, but i think i have to organise myself with the right tools for the job, and also arrange Steve to take the kids out for a few hours (or the whole day! Tuesday, March 10, 2009. Here's the finished rainbow dress. I'm not 100% happy with it. A few little mistakes here and there. Too many late night knitting sessions whilst watching sex in the city. Sunday, March 1, 2009.

Mama Bird's Creations: Experiment
http://mamabirdcreations.blogspot.com/2008/08/experiment.html
A place where I can show off my sewing, knitting, and other crafty escapades. Thursday, August 21, 2008. I have had a woollen singlet lying around for a while now, and since it is still fairly cold, I thought I'd finally get around to dyeing it. The trouble is I don't have any acid dyes or even cake gels, just food colouring. I figured it couldn't be too hard to work out though, so just dug out some vinegar from the pantry and away I went! Looks awesome. Well done! August 25, 2008 at 2:17 PM.
