GET KNITTED OR LANVIN???

Just came across this beautiful fabric and FAKE pearl  necklace designed by Lanvin and worn by the lovely Sara Michelle Gellar which could be yours for the mere price of $ 715.  I am really going to try very very hard to duplicate this little number and hopefully have it posted here in a couple of weeks time.I'm going to have to put this one up for sale in my etsy store (GetKnitted) if all goes well....stay tuned for the big comparison.

and the fabric flowers keep coming

haven't made as many as i would of liked by now but here are three versions of fabric flowers, at the moment using only scrap bits of fabric lying around. I love the red yo-yo flowers and will be making more of those in the same fabric. I intend to buy some velvet soon because i think that  all of these designs would look fantastic in velvet and silk. These were my first attempts but i look forward to making and showing my velvet/silk ones here soon...cheers

fabric flower

Handmade recycled cotton fabric flower pin/brooch adorned with a beautiful purple glass button. The petals have been manipulated and sculpted to add dimension.These flowers look simple enough to make but boy do they require alot of time and patience.  Cant wait to experiment with different materials and textures, so stay tuned for fabric flower number two.

Valentines day

valentines day is all about hearts and flowers, girls and boys,friends and family. We all have friends and family right? So then why is half the worlds population so alone and so very lonely? Spare a thought for all those who are alone on this day.We should practice valentines day everyday and spread the love all year long so  HAPPY VALENTINES DAY TO YOU ALL........just a stranger from down under...cheers

crochet rose cuff

hi all
Just another new edition to my ever growing crochet/knitted cuff collection. They are so much fun to make and you can let your imagination run wild (haven't really done that yet but I'm getting there). This one incorporates my love of pink and grey with a pretty  vintage looking rose attached. I think it would look great with jeans,high heels and a cute top. watch out for more to come soon, I'm going to let my imagination run wild with my next project. this one is up for sale at my etsy store http://www.etsy.com/shop/GetKnitted.
CHEERS.....
