Good Morning Miss Kootoyoo

Lets hope this works, I think with the cute colours and flowers that it is the lovely Curly Pops. Don't worry if this post doesn't make any sense, go visit Kirtsy if you feel the need for clarity. She is an interesting read while you are there too.

Ho HO HO - Oh Dear

So apparently there is only 7 weeks until Christmas, where did that year go? Anyway Santa is looking for some equally stylish places to put his bounty this year so I have done some Santa sacks. The green one is yet to reach it's full Christmassy goodness, but you get the idea.

Also some robot shorts for the fellas and cute little brown pirate style shorts too.

So you have heard me banging on about the Mathilda's Market enough, so please come down this Sunday at Malvern Town Hall and say hi. (I have to admit I am normally too shy when people say that, but PLEASE do.) There are lots of other fabulous people there too with great kiddy goodies, toys and clothes and activities for the littlies. And not in Melbourne, don't forget Brissy, Perth and Sydney have some great stuff on offer too.

I need Some Better Cape Puns

So I can't come up with a witty title for this post, so you know if someone wants to do my homework feel free. I finally got back to my beloved super hero/ princess capes in the white so there is lots of room for little maestros to put their own flavour on it with paint or food, whatever yours like to express themselves with. I am hoping to get them in the shop next week, love to know what you think about the logos.

Girls have love heart, fairy wand, unicorn or angel wings.

Boys options bulldozer, space ship, train, skull and cross bones or pirate ship.

They come with initials in felt too as per the train. I am a bit fond of them!

On My Desk

I thought perhaps showing you the state of my desk would be the best indicator of what is happening. I don't even know if my last few posts have even made sense, there is so much swirling around in my little space limited mind. I sound like such a whoose since there seem to be so many talented young ladies doing the market in a smooth no fuss manner.

More desky goodness at the ever lovely Kotoyoo.

Anyway back to the subject, here are my red babies to even out the pink. Now for some sugar and tea.

This is .. My Favourite Quote - and More Sewing

"Go Where There is No Path and Leave a Trail" - I loved it through my adolescence and I still love it to this day, feeling a little like that as I venture off to the Market.

Hip Hip to Strawberry Kisses for this weeks theme and Hooray for Three Buttons for more.

Sewing, Sewing, Sewing. Here are some more creations and I have been working on my beloved super hero capes too - more of that tomorrow. All this makes me HAPPY too, Mum's invaluable help makes me happy, Glen taking next Sunday off to join me at the market = Super Happy. Everyones lovely and supportive comments = SUPER DUPER HAPPY. I find blogging connects me with so many great ideas. These are a few inspired ones.

After I did the girl bloomer set I was deciding to do a boy one and wasn't sure if the fellas were into that sort of thing, until I read this. So this is the funky cars inspired one, but I think the boys like to call them nappy covers not bloomers, for street cred - you know.

When I first started looking at all the girl designs together I realised I had no pink so I have this box pleat now in pink and reversable cape with button, the other side is shimmery pink - so I am calling this one the Elliboo collection.
