Joyeuses Paques!!

"J'ai 5 ans. Je suis Maddy. J'adore faire caca."

I made a dress adapting a pattern I had, by adding a round collar. I never did one and kind of made it up as I went along, remembering what I had read in books. It turned out well. Phew! And I love the dress!

Reetsweet was a success! Thank you if you came!

Reetsweet!!!

I have spent the morning going around Netheredge and Sharrowvale Road advertising for this craft fair. Please spread the word!





I have finally finished this doll! It is a belated Christmas present for a little girl. The pattern is from Wee Wonderfuls. I thought the doll looked a little like my mother on the photo behind...

Vive le weekend!

After everyone having their hair trimmed, we headed to cafe ceres this weekend.
I just LOVE the place. It's so ideal for drawing upstairs in the morning.



Everyone got busy "building a house" while I was trying to take photos of one of my screenprinted bags for the folksy shop...

I wasn't very successful and will have to take more pictures.
You can always drop me an e-mail or grab me after school drop-off if you are desperate for one of these bags!
Or you can just think 'What a silly idea'... Someone said I wouldn't sell many because so many people hate public transport... I just love being on the bus, the train...

Bonne annee!

Heavens To Betsy had her stall opposite mine at the Clifford School fair -such a lovely view!

At Carfield School, I took a few prints and fanzines to sell...

And made some cakes... They sold so well!

I made the girls some dresses for our new year eve's party -using this beautiful book.

A linocut called "coffee coffee".

A very busy couple of months and no time to blog!
I decided I wanted to blog more often... I actually like it!

Oh oh oh!

I hope you can come!!!

Oh!

Hey ho! A long silence but a lot of new things to show you.
Not just enough time to take photos etc...
After a lovely first Christmas fair at St Mary's church, I will be at Carfield School Christmas fair on Saturday and at the Millennium Gallery this Sunday too for the lovely Reetsweet fair. Then, on Saturday 3rd December, I shall be at Clifford School on Psalter Lane in Sheffield.
I hope you like the new wooden brooches on the pictures... More new things soon here!
