today's lion

I embroidered this lion today, using some 70's fabric I have. The top is way too big hence the rolled up sleeves but I thought she should model it, makes a better photo than folded up.

I also made a clothkits dress for her, I did it to age 2. I loved my clothkits clothes as a child and remember them not only being fun designs, comfortable and I could match my older brother and sis but in different colours . Anyway after having sent the first kit back I realised today that the lining I had was too small... ho hum perhaps Minna will have to make do with one dress. I have the pattern so I will make my own designs....

Minna's bat...


I have just made this bat for Minna I called it Minna's bat as 'made with safety in mind-no sharp edges' was pooh poohed by Christian he thought that was weird! Well Minna likes her new toy, she bum shuffled around clutching onto it!
On the back I sewed a label on which states :Finest Huddersfield Worsted . Well pleased with that!

Right off to trundle around...
