What Katie did next

It feels like ages since I have shared some of my makes with you, so at lunchtime, I braved the cold (but beautifully sunny) weather, and took some snaps.  You may notice that my face does not appear in any of the photographs, I have that lovely 'I have a cold' look going on.  Nice.

As always, I would love to know what you think :)

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?

I have three craft fairs approaching, all of which are advertised as 'Christmas Craft Fairs'.  As soon as I know that I should be making a particular type of product, I begin to malfunction!   I have already made some pin badges and gift bags, both from vintage Christmas fabric, but those didn't really amount to much stock, so here are some of my lastest festive themed creations.

Now, these brooches are supposed to be brussel sprouts...!  In my mind, they were going to look amazing, but I can't get past the idea that they look like strange alien heads!  Maybe with some clever packaging they may look more appealing?

and finally, vintage fabric collars!  These did very well at the Leicester Vintage Fair last month, but I have so far only managed to make four new ones!  I'd better get busy!
