Renovation continues
Now the kids are back in school I am torn between house work, house renovation and Rustyfish making..... Here's the latest on the house photos. Unfortunately the stairs them selves were in a bad way and we replaced a few treads and other parts and decided it would have to be carpet, but I do love stripes!

Love the postman
It's not even my birthday and I'm so excited. The postman has brought me some new boxes!
The big ones I am hoping will be for my Sock Creature Kits, the medium ones...wait and see and the Small ones are for my Earrings. As although I love the postman I do not love Royal mail and this will save me their extortionate small parcel fees as my earrings can now pass as a large letter!
I'm off to dance with excitement now :)
Meet Eddie the Eagle Izzard
New Sock Creature is a tweet. Meet Eddie the Eagle Izzard. He maybe pink but he knows his skilift from his forklift and his fast tweeting, love of lipstick, jaunty ski masks and high heels has earnt him infamy across the bird world comedy circuits.
Will he become the next kit?A bit more sewing or customisation available with this one. Now where to put him.....

Crazy for a Crocheted Collar
My latest makes... a great way to use left over cotton and those vintage buttons, these look and feel so lovely I've become addicted to making them. Hope you like them too they are a great addition to a plain tshirt or dress. The pattern can be found on Ravelry by Emma Escottor you can purchase a ready made one from me. Currently in White, Antique or Olive Green.
I'm itching to design one with beads but have run out of cotton...
ps don't forget if your like to learn to crochet come along to avago crafts, ilkeston derbyshire and join my class :)
