St Patricks Day, Leprechauns and a Little Fairy Door

It's St Patrick's Day on Monday 17th March, I was asked to make a special Fairy Door with Leprechauns in mind for a little girl whose birthday falls on the same day.

Painted in Greens, Orange and a bit of White, the colours of the Irish Flag.



For standing a Fairy Door on a Shelf

It can be placed against a wall or can be freestanding.

Notebook, Diary or Address Book Owl & Moon Cover

What a wonderful day, the sun is shining in a clear blue sky, the flowers are blooming, the bees are buzzing, butterflies are enjoying the warmth and the birds are merrily singing away. A lovely British early spring day.

This week I've had the sewing machine out and I've been busy with Notebook and Diary Covers, not all of them are ready to have photo's taken but one I've finished is this Owl and Glittery Moon cover, I first done this design as a Halloween Swap a couple of years ago, you can see the original Owl Cover Here.This has been made using Denim, Cotton, Felt, Beads & Sequins, oh and I mustn't  forget the glitter.
