Too soon?

I'm sorry ... I know it's too soon


but with 5 markets booked and a spinning head
I've had to make a start.

I hope you will forgive me.
Look away now if you're festive-phobic.

First up, some early applicants for the soft toy department.


Malcolm Mouse is from Christmas Crafting in No Time (Clare Youngs)
and Monkey just  happened.


I have high hopes for this friendship.


The cot makeover came next


then the Rudolf impersonators turned up.


I was pleased that their Santa suits still fitted.


Just the fairies to sort out...they're waiting in the wings (!)
and I'm on track for our next show.


The 'to do' list just keeps on growing,
but I love it.


If your local please pop in and say hello.
(Vintage and Very Nice Market, Assembly Rooms, Chichester, Saturday 4th Oct)


So... I've started ... have you?

Crafty ways make merry days.

  1. Hello E.E. no Im not festive phobic ... today is my eldest sons birthday & whenever that passes I always find christmas is right at my doorstep. I adore your softies & their crib. Best of luck for the markets ... things are so very quiet over here, folk are not buying yet.

  3. Fantastic merry makes
    Especially Malc and monkey
    Your goods bring cheer
    From far and near
    And I think they're rather funky.

    Struggling to make a rhyme today. Monkey makes me laugh with his (her) folded arms and wide smile. I think you should make lots and lots of monkey's. He's even turned Malcolm' head!!! x
