Busy Busy Busy!

I'm one of those people who plans the next project before I finish the one in hand and consequently this leaves me in a mess with lots of work started and loads of stuff everywhere which can't be put away because it's in use!
As Oly left for a holiday she suggested I finished some of my projects. Wise words indeed - and I did just that!
I boxed up some chocolates. The boxes are 5/8" in diameter.


I also made up 150 rolls of fabric ribbon which had been waiting forever!
Here are a few. The reels are 5/16" in diameter.


 I sewed 100 cushions which I'd cut out and I sold most on Etsy!

When Oly returns we want to try needle felting so I must finish a few more things by next week!
Have a good week, whatever you're doing.

  7. You've been obiously very busy with your minis. I have had too little time for mine, but I'll try to find little time occasionally. On saturday it was raining and I had time to make the Noah's ark for my giveaway. The ribbon reels are so cute.
