PJ's
I am hoping to get some PJ's made for the kiddy winks for christmas. so far i have cut some out and zig-zaged the edges. what do you think of the fabric?
The icecreams are for tiny, the dinosaurs for my little nephew and the construction one is making 3 pairs of PJ's bottems for my son and 2 god sons (planning to get white t-shirts and applique something on them.
still have some of the flannel left. Any ideas what to do with it?

Exchanging?
OK,
well i hope this post finds you warm as its quite chilly here and i suspect every where else (unless you are living somethere thats not britain, in which case you may not be so chilly!).
Anyway......
I have somethings left from the little sale i did at the church christmas fair. I have no where to store them and won't be doing a sale again till next year (and by that i mean the same church one in november next year!)
so i have decided to 'advertise' my things on here and say that if there is anything you'd like offer me something in exchange! you get to decide what you think its worth. (i'd like to add here that i do have 2 small children boy of 5 and girl of 3, she especially is lacking in stocking fillers at present but if other items suitable for mothers were offered i could divert cash to tiny!!!!)
If you could blog about this (tweet, facebook etc etc) that would be fantastic, the more poeple that see it the more chance i have of exchanging these items.
ok,
So on to the items i have to offer...
Door Stops (3 one flowery, 2 sea design), would be sent without the weight (i'm not mad! smart price rice from a well know supermarket, 1KG fits into the centre of these, more weight could be added if stuffing removed)
Hand tied fairy skirt with an extra bit (on top of the skirt) that can be tied around the wrist, hair or onto a plain wand. small waist 50cm or a little bit less but it is elastic.
Hand tied fairy skirt with an extra bit (on top of the skirt) that can be tied around the wrist, hair or onto a plain wand. waist 60cm or a little bit less but it is elastic.
Super hero capes, one blue, one red, with matching mask. (as modeled in this post)
Small wipe clean aprons (2 avalible)length 46cm approx (thats from top of fabric to the bottom), ties are 70cm approx
as you can see below the reverse is also patterned but the printing is marked. modeled by tiny here
These are also childrens aprons. there are 2 of the ones with cars on (white on reverse) and one of the reversable blue flowery type. 62cm in length, ties about 73cm long
Adult aprons - purple one (same on reverse side) is 76cm long, ties about 108cm long
AND finally
Christmas apron, plain on reverse (see below), green with festive pocket and holly. 82cm in length and ties about 107cm long.
Hope there is something here you would like to exchange for!
