Fantastic Market


Well what a wonderful day we had..I was a bit worried as the weather man had said rain all week but it was a beautiful day.. I sold most of my new dolls. So I will be very busy getting ready for the 2 day market on November the 20th and 21st.. Have a couple of orders to do, but I will also be making as many Christmas dolls as I can..
I have just been making more fridge magnets as I sold out of them..
Our Scout Leader has only 5 week to go till she has her baby so I wish her all the best for a pain free delivery..Hmm is there such a thing!!
The film crew from Ace TV will be there next market so we will be on
TV in 2011..

WOW July already!!



Well hasnt this year gone quickly? Above are a couple of new dolls I made for a 3 day market I did, which was a great success.. The little lavender chooks are always a great seller at $2 each so I made 70 of them and only came home with 17..
I have had a busy few months with markets and my Lap Band operation which I had done on the 18th of June.
I started out at 109.5 kilos and am now down to 97.5. Doctor said a great weight for me would be 75 so a way to go yet..
Cant wait to buy all those new clothes.lol.
It is our 20th wedding anniversary in November and Luke is buying me a ruby eternity ring so I will be hopefully buying a new evening dress to celebrate in...
Well better go have my lunch now.. Catch Ya all soon..
Please Keep Safe..

April Already




Well another couple of months have passed so quickly..The older you get the faster the years seems to go by too fast.lol..
I have been making more dolls and trying to tidy my craft room, which is not getting any tidier..
I have recently been to Port Pirie on holidays and while I was there I met up with an internet friend, Kirrily.. I was very nervous at first but it was great having a sticky beak around her home.. She has a wonderful display of her crafts everywhere.. I wish I had a bigger house so I could put more of my stuff out.. Photos are of a couple of dolls I have made to sell..
Well I am off to the surgeon tomorrow for the first time to find out about the banding.I must admit I am a bit nervous. I am hoping to have it in June after the long weekend. I have a large 3 day Craft market to do that weekend so I have waited a year a few more months wont kill me.lol
Well catch ya all soon

Done for this year








Well I did my last market for this year today and I must say I am glad to have a break..
I did really well and had a good time but I am worn out.. above are some of my latest dolls..
The next market I will do will be in March, hopefully this will give me time to clean my craft room up. LOL
I am going to list some of my dolls on Ebay this week, hopefully I will sell some so I can make some new ones from some of the hundreds of patterns I have purchased this year.. I am really looking forward to doing something new next year not sure what yet but it will be a big year for me and I hope to have a different outlook on life after my operation.
Some sad news now!!
I must update you on my friends Joey that I told you about in a previous blog, Maisie.
The poor little thing had to be put down Wednesday.
It was a very sad day, she just couldn't come back from her injuries..
