Sox for the shop...

Hello my lovely friends!

I have been finishing off the new sox for my etsy shop...

here are few,

let me know what you think!!

I love the white bell on this one!



An old favorite, and one of my best sellers, I have such a limited amount of this funky Sock fabric and it is discontinued so no chance of getting any more ...
.................................................

And on the excitement front!!
I went to Angel's doctors appoint with her last week and they have told her that because she is a little on the small side they will be inducing her on Thursday.
That means we will get to meet our little grand daughter Hunny very soon and I am so excited :o)!!
I took this of Angel, Ben and Khye last week when we went out for dinner, it is a little dark but you can see her little 'Hunny' bump poking out of her jacket


..and happy birthday to our darling Angel.. who turns 23 today!
Your daddy and I couldn't be more proud of you sweetheart.
You are just perfect in every way!!
Your warmth and kind heart is a joy to everyone who meets you, and you are the most amazing wife and mama.
We love you, we love you, we love you!
Mwah xoxo

Have a great 'rest of the weekend' everyone, back soon ;)!
Hugs,

... some (very belated) Christmas photos...

It was my birthday the other day and I got thoroughly spoilt - one of my favorite things from Hubby and the kids was a huge array of embroidery cottons - (yes!, more embroidery cottons!)

I got quite a few more pretty things so will post them soon!

A while ago I bought this amazing thread rack from Lynne at Cockburn Sewing Centre, isn't it fantastic!!!!! It was a shop fitting that they no longer needed, it is huge so hubby cut it down and fit one piece in here, above my embroidery machine.. Need more threads as you can see :)!!

but I wonder where I will put the rest of the rack........

I made these for my adorable nieces, I hope they like them!

And here are some pics of Christmas eve, we had our family get together on Christmas eve becasue darling hubby had to workd on Christmas day - noice! (not!)

Oh well, I guess someone has to do it....

..........................

Our Little Bug.....

Isn't he beautiful!! Look at that face!! Honestly I could watch him all day.... he is so funny, and his personality is really starting to come through, he's a bit of a nutter though, a comedian, like his Uncle the rock star!! Here he's waiting for Presents, (Rock star can't get enough of him either, they are such good mates, Bug adores him! )

The songstress and the sports fan were so very tired from their trip up to Perth, and the glamour cirl is chillaxing (her word!) waiting to be lavished with presents :)!!

Pressies that were too big to fit under the tree!

Everyone getting impatient waiting for Dad to get home!

(no room in the lounge, too many pressies, they were stuffed everywhere!)

The last few photos are of the Bug getting his Elmo Live from Angel and Ben - he was completely enthralled with it!!

Look at these guys, aren't they adorable!!

The sweetest little family, ...

and another one on the way - Yayy!

The model is three months pregnant!

It talks and dances and sings, he loves it!

That's all for now, hope you are all well and healthy. Don't forget the Jingle Sox give-away, please comment if you would like to win!!

Hugs

Happy New year!

Hello my lovelies!!
I hope you had a great Christmas and I want to wish you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR! My prayer for you is that 2010 will be filled with peace, joy, health and blessings. My love and best wishes to you all!

I also want to apologise as I did not fulfill my promise of a Jingle Sock Giveaway before Christmas - I got so snowed under with orders that I was still delivering Jingle Sox on Christmas Eve!!

I was completely overwhelmed with the amazing response to my Jingle Sox - I couldn't believe how many people ordered them, and, when they received them, ordered even more :)!! It was beyond my wildest expectations! I want to thank all my beautiful customers for your support and kindness, it has been such a wonderful experience for me that I can't wait to get started on Christmas 2010!..

I will be doing the Jingle Sock giveaway soon, I know it is a little late but I am sure that next Christmas will be here before we know it ;)!

.... Now, on to a few pictures, to brighten things up!

I got quite spoiltby my lovely family this Christmas and one of my favorite pressies were these lovely embroidery threads from darling hubby, have been having lots of fun with them!

I designed a set of Euro-style pillows , perfect for a little girls room! I will be putting these in my etsy shop in the next couple of days...

And as I am loving everything damask lately had such fun creating this sweet pillow. I have a few more colours in this design on the way and will have them in my etsy shop soon!

Made this pillow for a dear friend's birthday, I love the red and aqua together!

And as well as hundreds of Jingle Sox, I made these cute stockings for my mum and dad for Christmas...

Lots more to share soon but lastly just wanted to show you the adorable Robert Gordon cake stand that The model and the other rockstar got me for Christmas - isn't it lovely!

Will be back in the next couple of days, I have some great pictures of my favorite Quilting shop Homespun Workshop so will post them in the next couple of days. If you are looking for inspiration or just want to get lost in "fabric heaven" make sure you head down there, they have some gorgeous new fabrics in store, including Heather Bailey's new line of Nicey Jane, Soooo Yummmy! .... honestly, I could live there :)!

Take care of yourself and see you soon!

Big hugs for a wonderful New Year!

Cute tags and New Sox...

I am buried in my studio again.. The orders are rolling in for Jingle Sox, and I am having so much fun doing what I love! I made these super cute tags for a customer's Jingle Sox, I love the pink, I hope they do!



And a more traditional colour...



All the old favorites are still selling well.... they do look lovely on my sister's fire place don't they!...







But I am still loving me an Aussie Bush Christmas!!!
Traditional....



Gorgeous blues.... I love the reindeer.


And some modern red and black - sorry about the terrible second picture, the fabric has a real sheen to it and our Aussie sun just didn't want to co-operate!



Remember the giveaway - 2 Jingle Sox, personalised, your choice of fabric... leave a comment to enter ;)!
Big hugs!
