My book shelf

 As you may or may not know I read a lot, I read very fast, I would say I read like a demon; that's if demons read. I think they do.
A little while ago I promised to write a book review or at least a recommendation every week. Well things got in the way and I didn't do it.
So now I'm going too.
I was going to list all the books I've read since the start of the year but then I looked around the house to the places where books live & decided that a picture would do.  Then I'll just pick one or a series and tell you about it.
How does that sound?

Making - Softies

I've been making more softies. 
Tweaking the design a little,
it's been in my repertoire for a long long time but I can't tell you how long because that will give away too much.
Any way how cute is he/she?
I've listed this one in my Etsy Store.

In my mail box - Sweet fabric

This week I received 2 lovely parcels from Fabric Shoppe  http://www.etsy.com/shop/fabricshoppe
These sweet bundles will become cushions, bunting & quilts for boys. Except for the pink owls & cute birdies.
I have had a lot of requests for boys furnishings.

In my mail box- Torment by Lauren Kate

Today I recived my advance reading copy of Torment by Lauren Kate.
I get to review this book for Collins Booksellers in Werribee.
Torment is the second book in the Fallen Novel series, the first book is Fallen and if you haven't read it you should.
And don't you just love the cover art.

Bloom

Bloom cushion in pink.

These cushions are made from re-purposed fabrics, new fabrics, vintage buttons, ric rac & trim.

A Sneak Peek

I'm working on some new cushion designs and I just had to give you a sneak peek. They are hand & machine sewn,  I've used vintage button & trim so each one is different. These will be ready for my next market  (Modish Market) on the 28th of August.
