Thank You BareMoose...

A quick thank you to Janet at www.BareMoose.etsy.com - I received my lovely necklace today and it is great.  What a great giveaway to win!  Here's a picture of my treasure, that I'm wearing as I type - happy dance!!!

New Butterfly Tee Design Listed...

I have finally finished my new Butterfly Tee!  In between making dresses to sell and trying to cram hundred's of ideas in to the working day, I've finally squeezed another tee out!  I must stop coming up with too many other ideas - there are only so many hours in the day :-)

Here's a little picture:

Well, I did say it was a little picture (I'm just amusing myself now!).  Here are some bigger pictures for people like me with appalling eyesight from too many hours at the Janome:

The fabric has been heat transferred, then stitched onto the tee.  I have handstitched the arround the edge of the butterfly (bless blanket stitch) and machine stitched the green block.  I have also hand beaded the butterflies antenae - just to give a bit of sparkle!

This is a OOAK tee - available in size 6.  Feel free to pop into my etsy store -MooBeeTees - if you're interested in picking it up ;-)  You won't see another like it!

Cheers,
Karen.

Lucky Me...!

Well, I certainly woke up to a lovely surprise last Sunday when I received an email from fellow Etsian baremoose letting me know that I had won her most recent giveaway!!

I have trouble winning a three legged race - so you can imagine my delight :-)

As a famous Australian music critic is known to say - 'Do yourself a favour' and check out Janet's blog.

Also take some time to look at her lovely store - she has lovely jewelry, a little something for everyone!

Dusters meet in Melbourne

The 5th September was a pivitol day for me - I actually got to meet some of the talented artists and crafters behind the Etsy Dust Team.  We got together at the Lindt Cafe (Chadstone) and proceded to spend a lovely couple of hours together chatting.  It's something I highly recommend to other Etsians - the opportunity to meet with like-minded people is always a thrill!

Thanks to Kerri/vintagesewandso, Celeste/littlewaltz, Sally/sallysoriginalart andAndy/andyjusty for making the morning so much fun!

Thanks also to Ian and Kayan for their patience whilst we discussed the critical crafting issues of the day!  I look forward tot he next one

Some of my Etsy favourites...

I'm feeling a little lazy today, so instead of coming up with something witty to say I'm just going to post some of my favourites - love these items!  Take some time to visit these Etsians - enjoy!
