little snippets of craftiness

I think that at some point soon I will be free to come back and more than just dabble in blogland... this year has just been a little crazy - just had a lovely image of myself in a full circle skirt, spinning around and around!

I have managed a little craftiness lately - for little people birthday gift requests, It was fun, I do wish I had more idle time...

This little duck was for a first birthday gift. I haven't blown the dust off my scroll saw for such a long time, I was a bit nervous! I drew a nice gentle curved 'thing' to ease myself back into it and only broke one blade.

My cousin's daughter coveted a knitted horse at kindergarten so with the swift inbox arrival of one of Linda's magic patterns, this little fella trotted into her life for her 5th birthday.

Beginning again...

It is very difficult trying to think of something to say after such a long absence but...I'll throw a few of my highlights at you.

Lavender (the chook) finally starting laying her beautiful blue eggs.

I've made some wooden stuff (I got a scroll saw for Christmas, WooHooo!)

 
and we had a most splendiferous holiday by the beach; while there I read three books (most seriously indulgent don't you agree?)

ok, I'll be back soon.
