From the top, a thank you card from my little friend Hollie. I made her this Ruby doll for her birthday. She's since named the doll Wiggle and no amount of 'oh really, I think she looks like a Ruby' has changed her mind. Doesn't matter though, especially since when she opened the parcel Hollie said 'Oh I've always wanted one of these' and gave her a big hug. Now that made me smile!Next the buttons, I won these on a Blogtober giveaway that V for Violet hosted. Thanks so much! I love them and can't wait to get creating.
Finally a card from my very creative mum (who shares this blog with me). Mum bought the most amazing stamps last weekend and made me a card with them. Thanks Mum x
There was one more parcel that arrived but it's a Birthday present for Mum so can't tell..shhhh
Although I'm on a little sewing break I did make these eye masks a week ago. I guess a girl only really needs one mask but I got a bit excited to see what all the fabrics looked like quilted so made 6. They'll come in very handy for Christmas presents and... big news... our first Bright Red Cherries Give Away! Just leave a comment on this post and include which one is your favourite. I'll pick a winner randomly next Wednesday and post the details on the next My Creative Space. See more creative spaces over at Kootoyoo
ps - did you hear the news.. Stitches and Craft are coming to Adelaide, thanks Gillian for the tip off!

The masks are so beautiful!! And you know I love anything with red or orange in it.
ReplyDeleteThere is lots of cretivity hovering around you at the moment. Those buttons are gorgeous and how lovely that Ruby/Wiggle is so loved.
ReplyDeleteYour eyemasks are great - a bit funny that you made 6! My favourite is the front one, with the red leaves.
I love that she's renamed Wiggle the doll formerly known as Ruby.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful assortment of happy! Love the doll. Those eye masks are stunning, what a great idea. I like the middle one with the orange flowers on the white background, so pretty.
ReplyDeleteSo much gorgeousness! I too love the orange and brown flowery one.
ReplyDeleteYay for packages in the mail, especially ones so full of crafty inspiration. I love them all but my favourite would have to be the red one at the far end with the white flowers.
ReplyDeleteEye masks make brilliant gifts, I love that yours are quilted, they looks so cosy like you could sleep all day wearing one.
ReplyDeleteHaha, Wiggle the doll. Not nearly so romantic a name as Ruby, but what can you do?
ReplyDeleteI love the eye masks too.
I seriously need one of those eye masks!! I lost my boring black one and I have trouble sleeping without it. Plus yours are so beautiful, I'm sure one would help me sleep xo
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great getting lovely things in the post?! The eye masks are wonderful and I would have to agree with V for Violet the Eiffel Tower one does it for me! x
ReplyDeleteFabulous goodies and I love those eye masks! Have a lovely day :) K
ReplyDeleteLove those eye mask- I thin kI especially like the red one in the very very back. I also won some buttons from Vis for Violet and made a little bracelet out of them. Hoorah! xo m.
ReplyDeleteLovely collection of goodies! I love that you quilted the eye masks. I think my favorite is the one in the front--great colors and print!
ReplyDeleteIt's patently obvious to me, that a girl requires no less than seven eye masks for any one week - especially when it comes to fabrics like those!
ReplyDeleteGreat eye masks! I made one not to long ago, and they are fun. : )
ReplyDeleteYay for the fun stash of inspiration and the eye masks looks nice and soothing :) They would certainly make great Christmas gifts!!!
ReplyDeleteYou sure do have some lovely things to play with there - have fun. I really like the red eye mask at the back - but they are all pretty!
