I call this Bunny Bunting!

More bunny rabbits!
I know it's not time yet to think about Easter, but these are so cute I had to show you.



Five little bunnies, made from scrap pieces of fabric, slightly padded then backed with felt.
The faces are hand embroidered.

I think they'll look great at Easter, and would also make a lovely decoration for a little girl's room.

Pirate Party bags

My son, Anthony, has decided he wants a pirate party for his 7th birthday, so I have made a bunch of little drawstring bags for his friends to take home.
I hate those little plastic bags of crap which kids bring home from parties. I spend half my life trying to evict plastic whistles from the house, standing on plastic flippy frogs in bare feet, finding stray marbles down the back of the sofa. Even though we have received numerous novelty erasers over the years nobody can ever find a blasted rubber.

I have also been reading The Moneyless Man which has inspired me to cut down on throwaway goods. I figure at least these little fabric bags might be slightly useful, more so than a little plastic bag.


I shall be filling them with pirate treasure, aka chocolate coins and sweets!
Because the only thing my children are ever really want from a party bag is something edible and not remotely healthy.
Pirates have terrible teeth.

I thought I saw a bunny rabbit...

This is a little bunny rabbit I've designed with Easter in mind.
He has a floral cotton front, hand embroidered face, felt bow tie and a felt back, slightly padded out with polyester wadding.

I decided to embroider the name of a friend's new baby onto the tummy and attach it to a card; I think it makes a rather cute little memento.

I love you more than...

Chocolate?

Beer and bacon?
Gin? I'm not sure I could say that ;)

Sewing? oh, no, I definitely couldn't say that!!
 These are little A6 cards, hand stamped with any message you like!

What do you love your partner more than??

Love is in the air...






 Getting organised for valentine's day with some machine stitched applique cards.

Hoping to get them listed in the etsy shop soon, meanwhile you can also find them on Shazronnie makes stuff on facebook.

Another bag :)

I've just listed this in my etsy shop here.
It is similar in construction to the Cath Kidston bag but with slightly different dimensions and shape.
The fabric is a cotton mix, a remnant of curtaining.

I put a lining in this one, which I think finishes it off nicely. The lining is upcycled from an old shirt of mine.
