The Frog Princess: Handy pocket bag
http://gershamabob.blogspot.com/2012/04/handy-pocket-bag.html
Thursday, 19 April 2012. I decided ages ago that my delightful daughter needed a bag of her own. One that was easy to get into, without a flap to get in the way of the treasures which constantly need carting about. Enter the cargo pocket bag! One bag, fit for the treasures of an 18-month-old munchkin. The strap even has extra length. I can just move the velcro on the strap to a new position, and the bag will grow with her! It was love at first wear. Posted by the frog princess. Ahhh, thats really lovely!

Wednesday, 10 August 2011. Oooh, not posted in ages, terrible I know! And now I'm posting when I really ought to be in bed! A quick recap of the last few months:. Kiddo is nine and a half months old! She's as old as a pregnancy! She keeps me busy. The knitting I've been doing? Well, it's all gonna get ripped out. No point in knitting something in two colours if they're impossible to tell apart except in bright sunlight. Baby trousers: ( Big Butt Baby Pants pattern. A sunsuit from the Made By Rae pattern.

The Frog Princess: make sure al gore don't cry
http://gershamabob.blogspot.com/2008/02/make-sure-al-gore-dont-cry.html
Thursday, 21 February 2008. Make sure al gore don't cry. The whole Al Gore thing is my husband's fault, his is very adamant about shutting off the lights and turning down the heat so that we don't make Al Gore cry. Well, I had 10 balls of lime green cotton burning a guilty consumer's hole in my stash, so what better way to use it than an eco string bag? Pattern: Elisa's Nest Tote. With the bottom from the Everlasting Bagstopper. Posted by the frog princess. The lime green looks gorgeous. Need to email me?

The Frog Princess: Viewfinder Skirt
http://gershamabob.blogspot.com/2012/03/viewfinder-skirt.html
Sunday, 18 March 2012. OK, it's been over six months since my last post. It's not like I haven't been a bit crafty, it's just that I was blessed with the Amazing Non-Sleeping Child. Recently said child has begun to sleep long periods at night, and even decent stretches of an hour at naptime. I can create again! I have come to show you my newest creation, a skirt for me. Ever since I saw this fabric from the Ruby Star Rising line by Melody Miller. I knew it would grace a skirt for me. Really love the pock...

The Frog Princess: Cosy
http://gershamabob.blogspot.com/2012/04/cosy.html
Wednesday, 11 April 2012. Yes, Christmas was well over 3 months ago, I know. Here's the present I made for my husband, finally (mostly) finished. A small matter of buttons and loops! I made him a cafetiere cosy, so that our coffee stays warm on even the most hectic weekend morning. Here's the cosy. Our little hectic-maker couldn't help but get involved in the action:. The backside with the to-die-for buttons I picked up at Darn It and Stitch:. Posted by the frog princess. 13 April 2012 at 11:23.

The Frog Princess: Charming scraps, oh my!
http://gershamabob.blogspot.com/2011/02/charming-scraps-oh-my.html
Sunday, 27 February 2011. Charming scraps, oh my! I've become very interested in sewing lately. I think my knitting has hit a bit of a rut, and sewing is almost instant gratification. I'm starting a half-square triangle quilt. (Let's see if I can find a CC image for one of these, ah, here we go:). By Flickr user Jessyroos. And mine will have zig-zags like that and oh so much more. With that in mind, I joined Very Berry Handmade's scrap swap. And here is what I received from Sew Quine Stitches:. Think Ive...

The Frog Princess: Wedding Guest Dress
http://gershamabob.blogspot.com/2011/02/wedding-guest-dress.html
Sunday, 27 February 2011. I had the honour of attending the lovely wedding of Liz. A few weeks ago, and as I am a fan neither of pink concoctions nor their prices, decided to create B's frock myself. (I am a fan of party frocks! This is based on the Itty Bitty Baby Dress. From Made By Rae, somewhat enlarged and with different straps. All of the dress materials came from our lovely local shop Darn It and Stitch. Including these fantastic vintage glass buttons. Little minx unlaced them. :D. And she looked ...

The Frog Princess: Month-Old Cards
http://gershamabob.blogspot.com/2011/02/month-old-cards.html
Friday, 4 February 2011. When my niece was born, her parents were gifted with a set of cards, one for each month in the first year of the baby's life. The deal is that you take pictures of your baby with the cards. I always loved the pictures of my niece that resulted, and before B was born, searched for a set to buy but couldn't find them. What to do but make my own! And then share them with y'all. Enjoy, and let me know if you get on with them. :). Posted by the frog princess. Need to email me?

The Frog Princess: Project Selvedge!
http://gershamabob.blogspot.com/2011/03/project-selvedge.html
Monday, 21 March 2011. It's almost the deadline for entries into Project Selvedge. The opportunity to post a fabric on Spoonflower. And eventually become a designer with Michael Miller! I decided I HAD to enter this contest, for which the first challenge is to design a "baby boy" fabric. Now, as the mother of a very small child, I can tell you there is nothing I hate more than simpering pastel blue and pink baby outfits. Oh no, not for my child, and not for my fabric! I'll let you know when voting opens!
