Hats...

the pink and purple hat was my trial run crocheting little hats for www.isands.ie (A Little Lifetime Foundation) a charity that provides information and support to bereaved parents and families of babies who have died...
a lot of premature babies born have nothing to wear and these little tiny babies look so small and fragile, as a mother you just want to wrap them up...

A little lifetime foundation will take your knitted, crocheted or sewed, hats blanket, wraps and teddies and send them to hospitals where they will be given to the little-ones who need them...

they will add a card to say who made this for their Angel and this poem ...
Wrapped in Love
In honour of your precious child
We made this little wrap
With caring hands and loving hearts
So comfort might be part.
Knowing it is given
To a baby who has died,
We made each stitch with tender care
And tucked much love inside.
When looking back in days to come
We hope that you will see,
Woven in these pastel threads,
A few brief, precious memories.



im going wool shoping today to get lots of wool in lovely pastel baby colours :o)

so this is my Hubby's Valentines Sock Bunny...



After making a few sock monkeys a few people were saying to me that a should make them to sell.

My cut-through castle Xstitch

Heres the X-stitch that im doing at the moment, its taking forever though, although i will admit it doesnt get picked up that often, should be cool when its finished :D







Ok this is one that needs finnishing.... the second pic is what it should look like...
i was doing this one while pregnant with my little Oja.
For those who don't know, i gave birth to my little Oja in June of 2009, he was born at 25weeks and was perfect and beautiful, he lived with us for just a precious 5minutes.... i miss him always :(
so i haven't had the strength to pick this up again... i will finish it one day, for my little man xxx



Hi guys,
we're have a sofa day, Matsya is not feeling very well, so he has decided not to let me forget and tels me every few minutes, ahh bless him....

These ones were done for my babies (still need to make one for druva) and must frame them...
