My Creative Space...

Today I need to finish the eyepatch for Joe's pirate costume. He's got a party to go to on Saturday.


I need to wrap this present for my MIL. It's her birthday today and she'll be over after lunch. I made it with some wool and some old sheets.


I'd also like to finish these iPad Sleeves to put into my shop. I've been doing a bit of applique.


Hope your all having a creative Thursday. Thanks Kirsty for hosting My Creative Space.

I love the pirate trousers - very cute!

BTW I blogged about your iPad cases on my site, hope it's ok coz I borrowed your picture of the stack of cases.... :)

I've got my boring black Apple case now which is great for putting down on a table at the right anlgle to type, but I think I'll make a slip cover to go over that because it's the sort of material (black and suedey) that'll mark badly!

i laughed when you explained the present for MIL made from wool and old sheets. there's be women out there with an old MIL lying around they don't like who'd love togive her something whipped up out of an old sheet ... like a rope and a shroud! LOL Sorry, I didn't mean to suggest you don't like your MIL or that's what you made ... i must take my foot out of my mouth.
