My creative space...

 
A bit of sewing! I got all inspired by blogs, tea and me and decided to make a cloud mobile for friends who have just had a baby. I take no credit for the idea of a sweet, colourful, cloud mobile. Official, buy-able ones can be seen here, here, here... Much like the keep calm posters it seems to have become a 'thing' and so whoever first had the idea is now no longer known... sorry person.
However I quite like my result. It's made from felt and a bit of stuffing. I just drew the pattern on a piece of paper and cut two of each out.
Oh and finished off with my VERY home made looking embroidery! Ha! I can't embroider at all, but I think it looks sort of errr rustic! Yes?!

    Oh that's so sweet ... what a lovely gift idea. I think you're an uber-talented seamstress (you should see what I do). I have a real thing for clouds too, so you've won me over! :)
