Fabric Inspirations

I love fabric. I didn't realise how much until recently. Since I have gotten into this whole blogging thing and have been learning about designer lines I have found some really wonderful fabrics. Tlhe only problem is having the money to buy them. I have been given strict instructions that I am NOT to buy any thing else until I have used what I have laying around here and sold some of my creations. I can still look and dream and plan for once this happens. So  I thought I would share some of the wonderful things I would love to purchase.


I want to share this great Australian Fabric designer,

Quick, Easy and Cheap Meal - Nachos

Want a quick and easy meal that is pretty nutrious for your children? Well I discovered this when I was working in a child care centre where they fed the children. They had to serve them up food was balanced but that kids would eat. Once I served it up to mine kids, it has become a quick family favourite. 

Jessica day.

Well even though Jessica's birthday was yesterday we decided to have a little party with family today. Because life is very full on with 5 children and we have only recently moved, we are not really into throwing something too outrageous. Plus I don't see the point when Jessica is only 3 and won't remember too much later on. I would rather wait till she gets into school and really appreciate it. She has had such a wonderful time.

She loves Dora and wore these PJs straight away.

She loves her fairy costume. So do her brothers who keep trying to put it on.

Love the look on her face when you ask her to pose.

Aren't I pretty?

Trying out her drink bottle.

Nicola decided she would try out Jessica's costume.

I made this for Jessica to wear. It was out of a pillow case and matching doona. Really happy how the outfit turned out.

Jessica dressed up ready for the party. All nice and clean, with her hair in 2 pony tails.

Now the hair is coming out. At least  I have a photo to prove she had it in.

No hair up and no fairy wings just the way she likes it.

The Angelina Ballerina costume she got from one of Nicola's friends. So off came my outfit and on went this.

Then she got a scooter from Grandma and Grandpa.

She is showing everyone her ballet moves.

Grandma reading her card to her.

Look I have been playing in the dirt.

Samuel trying out Jessica's book.

Time to blow out the candles on the baked strawberry cheesecake.

Jumping on the trampoline.
