Featured in an ETSY treasury!

I have been featured! Very exciting, it was one of my cocoons and you can view it here

Not sure what to say...

Well I am keeping up with my posting everyday, but it is very late and I can't think of anything terribly exciting to write about. I have been researching Etsy to find some new OOAK yarns to purchase for some different Cocoons, there are some lovely yarns out there, but being OOAK it means they will push the prices up, but I think it will still be worth it. Had another sale today of 3 Cocoons so that was good and 2 of the 3 I had in stock so not too much frantic knitting necessary. Anyway, I will try and come up with something more exciting to write about tomorrow (today it is after 1am), Stella's last day of Kindy today before holidays and it is dress up day, so I will try to remember to take some photos. Until then..

New fabric for the stash

Well I had lots of yumminess arrive in the letterbox this week! And the best thing is that there is still more to come. Etsy is my new Ebay and the credit card is getting a real workout. Luckily it is my birthday on wednesday so alot of these purchases are actually birthday presents. I am going to start making some quilts which I am itching to get a start on. I need an area though that I can spread out in and then just leave everything exactly where it is and not worry about little people coming and "helping". I am participating in DQS7 (Doll Quilt Swap 7) and some of these fabrics will play a part in the construction of my swap. I will put some photos up once I get going.

Not much else has been going on since my last post - India has started to put on some good weight so that is a relief, the other 2 terrors are the same - Stella is loving Kindy and I have put Oscar on a waitlist for Day care for one day a week. They are both starting an Art Class next wednesday so hopefully they will enjoy that. We are heading up to Brisbane next Saturday - somewhat spur of the moment as Paul has to go up for work, but it will be good to catch up with friends and family. Must start doing some organising of where we are staying and the like before it is time to leave. Two of the days is down the gold coast for Pauls work part so it will be nice to be stuck there in 5 star comfort and hopefully some sun!

"Sweet" treats in the mail...

I love getting parcels in the mail and lately I have been getting a lot - well a lot of supplies, but this one is something fun that arrived for me and India. She gets the Camille Softie and the "Just a Matter Of Time" print for her bedroom and I get the "Laughter is Contagious" print. They came from Sweet William who have some really wonderful pieces in their etsy store, and as I was their 100th Etsy customer I got one of my prints for free! Got to love that! They also have a great blog which you can visit here. Can't wait to set Indi's room up properly and put up this print. (We are picking up Oscar's "big boys bed" later this week and then Indi will have a cot - at last!) Aren't they just the *Sweetest*...

Well I have loaded a number of Cocoons onto Etsy and Made it this weekend and I have gotten my website uploaded as well, now I just have to get some sales!! It is all very exciting, but what will be more exciting will be getting my first sale from one of these sites! Looking into a couple of other markets to go to at the moment and am also looking at expanding into other areas of the handmade world so stay tuned.
