Handmade monday 14. A catch up on projects

Welcome to this weeks handmade monday, week 14 organised by wendy of 1stuniquegifts.
More photos than words this week as i'm tired from a long day at work. (My excuse and i'm sticking to it!!!)
So i just want to share with you what i have been working on for the past 2 weeks.
I have put my flowers onto hair clips and extended the leaves to come out of the sides.

Loads of pen cases which seem to be becoming my most popular item at fairs at the moment.
Pen Cases
My new project for this week from my new Tilda project book which i will share with you more later on in the week. They look great in plant pots.
Tilda Bird Houses
And finally one of the men where i work was moving in with his girlfriend and wanted to give her a moving in cushion which marked the date they had their 1st home. He chose the design from one of my books and chose the fabric and she absolutely loved it!!

  6. Everything is so pretty, so well made, the colors are delightful and I'm just still in awe! I love the little things to go in plant pots, those are amazing! Wonderful work. Wish the UK and the US were right next door. I would love to be able to come to some of the Craft Fairs.

  9. Red flower, love the red flower. I want to learn how to make these, they are sooo amazing. Might even cost me less in artificial flowers for this wedding.
