Bird of Paradise Exotic Flowers

The first two photos were taken in England, in a conservatory. They probably would not grow like that outdoors.

The next two photos were taken in Lanzarote where it was very warm.

Ballerina Cat

 

I made a cat toy for my Granddaughters birthday. She loves cats, ballet and beads so I incorporated all three.

I looked on Pinterest for ideas but made my own pattern. While making the fiddly arms I wondered why I made it so small. I used some left over fabrics including one that features cats. The beads were from my stash of crafty items.

Even gave her a curly tail.

Thursday Doors in Lanzarote

 I've been away to Lanzarote where the weather was lovely, now I'm back home where it is cold [UK]. Yesterday was nice but it is back to being cold again today.

Little Bunny in a Carrycot and Chickens

 Mini Carrycot and Bunny

I made this for my Granddaughter's birthday

I found the pattern on Pinterest and here is the link

I thought my Granddaughter had a small doll to fit the carry cot but her doll was too big so I made a little bunny to go in it. Pattern here.
