The Crafting Begins!!

So at the beginning of December my Mum and I like to have a table at the local craft fair, to raise money for a chosen charity (She makes silver and gold jewellery) . This year, I have a little time off work, so naturally I am going craft crazy!

It all began with my new sewing machine...


It's a 'Bernette' machine and I can not sing its praises high enough because for years I have been working on a dysfunctional 'Brother' machine. I love the design because I am a self confessed tidy and clean freak, and this machine has NO visible buttons or controls its all hidden away! 

Anyway, I started by making girls ruffle aprons, using this AMAZING tutorial:

Here is my finished product, 


They are machine washable and so handy to have around the house, I ended up making three of these, in different sizes and fabrics, 

Here is one I did in Pink, please excuse the crumples, I haven't had a chance to iron it yet! (Personally I prefer the blue)


There will be new daily crafts, so keep checking back!
