My Creative Space

I've been squeezing craft in where ever I can these days... The Christmas list keeps getting longer as each day ends..

This little doll was sent to my little friend Ruby who turned 4 the other day. Her mother said that when Ruby opened the package she said 'Oh mummy it's the doll I've always dreamed of' - Wow comments like that make it all worth it!
Next is the progress on the Princess and the Pea project for Knitting Nancy's. A very kind fellow at work made the wooden bed frame that I will be able to cover with crochet - though I'm tempted not too - the bed is so cute!
Finally the Red Christmas Stars that I have been working on - Quite happy with them, though MrG says it needs green too if it's going to be Christmas. Next job is the string of white stars for the red wall. With the next batch I need to try a different starch. The powder stuff I bought was rubbish... (or possibly I didn't read the instructions..
