PixiePunk Designs: September 2009
http://pixiepunkdesigns.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, 27 September 2009. Dear Miss Elytis,. You'll be pleased to know that I've been keeping out of mischief by making sparkly things. These ones are called "Spring has Sprung". Um, they don't actually have springs in them though, but "Spring has Cogged" doesn't quite work. Anyway, they're for sale from the little gift shop on the way out of the Big Top - here http:/ www.etsy.com/view listing.php? Yes, I know that's shameless self promotion, but shy bairns get nowt, as they say. Dear Miss Jameson,.

Nickie In Stitches: May 2010
http://blog.nickieinstitches.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, 31 May 2010. Not the Bank Holiday that I had hoped for. Had planned to go and see Holly as an Ummper Lumper on her Play School float this weekend but the last few weeks have caught up with me and I know it would have been silly to do so much driving in 2 days, so decided not to go. Put the backing on the quilt and then free machine stitched around the barbed wire patter to secure to the backing. Then found that it looked like lots of little pockets – yuk! Decided to cut circles and diagonals into...

PixiePunk Designs: December 2009
http://pixiepunkdesigns.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, 13 December 2009. You might have been thinking that its been awfully quiet on the Pixie front. Well, you wouldn't have been wrong. Its been terribly hectic both at Pixie School and the Circus, and then there's the. I have to take care of at this time of year,. You know what I mean (big fat man, white beard, seriously in need of a new outfit, needs to stop drinkinng all that fizzy brown stuff). So here are some of the stocking fillers he's had me making this year. I had some very pretty turquoise ...

PixiePunk Designs: Lava and Lumpies
http://pixiepunkdesigns.blogspot.com/2010/08/lava-and-lumpies.html
Thursday, 5 August 2010. Dear Miss Muse,. Its been a while since I sent the butterflies with salutations, so I thought it was high time I made ammends. I know you like unusual things and shiny things, so I got the Boxed Brownie to make some watercolours for your perusal. This one I have named after something he drawled in his rather odd southern accent; he claims that he said it was luverly, but I thought he said " lava-ly. They're rather sweet, but in the gift shop. All my love,. View my complete profile.

Nickie In Stitches: March 2011
http://blog.nickieinstitches.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, 27 March 2011. Walking is limited this weekend, due to Oscar's little op! He is unimpressed by it all. He tried to get through the cat flap with his stylish new head gear, and complete dismantled it. Finished off what Peggy Sue started! One, sort of, repaired cat flap, at least there won't be any more drafts and the animals will have to learn to keep their legs crossed until I get home! Still not impressed :-(. Friday, 25 March 2011. Millie Mai has started walking. Thursday, 24 March 2011. Then h...

Nickie In Stitches: February 2011
http://blog.nickieinstitches.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, 27 February 2011. Over the woods with Oscar. How great it has been to have some sunshine today. Saturday, 26 February 2011. Sharne and I had a great day at Textiles in Focus, it was good to meet up with lots of like minded people, never know it might kick start the creative bit in me again…………. Or maybe I will just carry on playing with the animals…………. Gosh this is good, wonder how hot I can stand it! Sunday, 13 February 2011. This is my piece, based on Johnathan Livingston Seagull. I prepared M...

PixiePunk Designs: Roses are, well, pink and gold
http://pixiepunkdesigns.blogspot.com/2010/07/roses-are-well-pink-and-gold.html
Wednesday, 21 July 2010. Roses are, well, pink and gold. Dear Miss Jameson,. Its all been a bit of a frenzy over here at the Circus of late - I've been getting my sketch book up to date, teaching Snorty macrame (he's doing remarkably well, all things considered) and trying to instill some sort of order on my boxes of stuff. And making pretty things, as well, in between bouts of putting things away then getting them straight back out again. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

PixiePunk Designs: July 2010

Friday, 23 July 2010. Breaking Up Is Hard To Do. Hope your latest excursion with Oolon wasn't too nerve-wracking and that you didn't need all that gin you packed to cope with his piloting skills. You did remember to take your Brownie along, didn't you, or at least one of those new-fangled gizmos? I always like looking at your holiday snaps, they're funny - all those running feet and blurry images. And you say your Brownie isn't fond of a tipple! Wednesday, 21 July 2010. Roses are, well, pink and gold.

PixiePunk Designs: Wire Not?
http://pixiepunkdesigns.blogspot.com/2010/08/wire-not.html
Sunday, 22 August 2010. Look what I found! You know the lovely things you gave me that we thought we'd lost? The Prof managed to find them again! Gosh, that's a lot of exclamation marks, but I really was very relieved when he handed me a little silver box with all the lovely gifts you got me from Lynne at The Altered Element. Sieve brooches without adding hand stitched padded washi paper flower centres like the one. This one has a slightly different centre: a medium sized silver gear thingy. Ah well, no ...

Saturday, 31 July 2010. Introducing ‘Greengage’ Have really enjoyed making her – she has taken ages, not sure if I can justify the time to make her twin sister ‘Damson’ as there are so many other things that I need to be doing. Need some fishing line to dangle her off of. Wednesday, 28 July 2010. Really enjoying the bug construction. My Sugar Plum Fly is getting on really well, have decided to give her some tattoos to make her a bit more interesting! Monday, 26 July 2010. Thought I would join my Sugar P...
