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.

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.....

my first kanzashi

hello world

I believe that the art of craft is an amazing high, maybe I need a life but I pity those who don't share the passion for any type of craft, be it in the form of fabric,yarn,wool,paper etc. I would also love to thank the internet and all the wonderful people who share their craft with us all. I actually learn t  how to do this on the net in one afternoon, what a great era we are living in. My first Kanzashi flower is born, not sure what i will do with it yet but I'm thinking of making a few more and stringing them together to make a necklace.I used Australian cotton from the "French provincial" range, its absolutely high end fabric.I'm just so thrilled with the outcome, please let me know what you think of it, I would also love to see your kanzashi flowers too. Kanzashi rules.....cheers

my latest crochet creation

Have been obsessed with making crochet jewelery lately, I'm rather pleased by my latest creation.  It looks mysterious and old worldly, the buttons give it a Mayan /Aztec kind of edge to it. Will be posting this piece on etsy this weekend along with a couple of other new creations for the wrist. I think these would make great Xmas gifts....cheers
