Felt Food Patterns

Another awesome seller on etsy i've bought a couple of patterns from is http://www.umecrafts.etsy.com/

These are three of my favourites and i've bought the first two. The patterns are really easy to follow.

I haven't got round to making the fruits slices yet, but i've made some chocolates from the second pattern. First I followed the pattern, then used the basic patterns and used my imagination. for some of my own designs.

Busy Busy Busy


I've had a busy week. I had a bit of a shock with my etsy shop yesterday, 8 sales in one day. I thought i'd been sneak attacked, but no, just a good day. I made up my own design for a lemon cake and not long after it was listed it sold, so i listed another one and that sold. I'm going to make a free tutorial for the lemon slices to put on here. I couldn't find any patterns for them so i ended up making my own. I'm also making up some truffles too.



I'm trying to get as much crafting done as possible as hubby is knocking down a wall tomorrow between the living and dining room, so there will be lots of mess. My son is having a work day at school. All the boys have to earn $30 for the day and give it to the school. Over 1000 boys, not bad money. If they don't earn the money they get a detention. So my son is helping hubby doing some demolition work. They're also going to knock down the wall by the driveway as i've nearly backed into it a few times!
