Productive

Ahh, nothing like a productive afternoon. Heater on, trackies and uggies, and a bit of sewing.
I've been thinking about doing something with the piece of curtain for a while, it cost me $2 at BSL. It looks like the May Gibbs characters in Snugglepot and Cuddlepie.

I've also been lugging around for years these cross stitches I did back in my wild days. I cross stitched almost obsessively during my teens and early 20's, giving many away when babies were born, or just keeping them. These were counted cross stitch on linen, I think. (Technically, I create something vintage!)


They've now become cute little cushions for Little Miss bed- well, I could hardly sell them, could I? I like to think I create heirlooms!

The curtain piece was used as the backing, I boxed the corners on these cushions, too, which made them look nice and square.
Of course, we now have to read the book, starting tonight, hmm, hope the Banksia Men don't scare us!
oh, well, plenty of other characters to enjoy!
