Keepsakes By Kt

ShopScotland Susan, look what arrived with Postman Pat ..... The Dug will be coming with me on my travels to fairs and events. Thank you!

See you there on Sunday. Hope lots of shares to encourage family and friends to drop in and see some fabulous 'home grown' small businesses.

There are just some pieces that have to be included in a Keepsake Memory Bear .... babygrow bunny snap button was too cute not to hot glue onto this tail. The hand sewn Indian manufacturs label makes a great ear and the the appliqued bunny for the other ear. Life creating these guys is great fun.

Lovely feedback from my customers on their Keepsake Bears 🐻🐻🐻

And off they go .... Have another set on the go and orders for another 5 booked in! Etsy has kicked off like a steam train .... Notice popped on to my page that orders open from middle of August .... a first for my wee home grown business. Keepsake Memory 🐻s

Focus Craft Fairs have an amazing group of very talented people gathered at their fairs, who are all dedicated to their own home grown businesses. Birthday's are all year round and don't forget Father's Day is Sunday 16th June so why not treat him to a unique gift that he'll treasurer for years to come.

Capturing very special moments and creating a very special cushion.

And away in the post. Those little sparkles caused havoc with my machine needle supply but they do look lovely on this Keepsake Memory Bear. Nothing like a sparkly 🐻.

My moody 'down on the shore line' with spilling wild foxgloves & lupins. Done on a silk hanky with raw silk threads and Galloway sheep wool.

It's Four Bear Friday

Recycled M&S pure wool skirt, that I bought years ago for a Rabbie Burns shin dig, and securing the moveable arms and legs with wooden buttons.

Natures friendly warriors giving a helping hand. Let's hope they don't have too much litter to pick up. After all we know that litter needs to be put in a bin and not dropped on the ground, don't we?

Not only will you find me here with my Keepsakes and Mardie and her socks, there are a lot of amazing crafters showing of their very best. There's also ice cream; food; games; family fun and nonsense and if you want to dress up Disney theme it would be fabulous to see who you come along as.

All handfelted using Galloway sheep wool which was hand dyed by Anne Arnold of Solway Wool Scapes @solwaywoolscapes who inspired me to do this type of hand felting in her classes.

Look at these fabulous 'happy' designs. Gorgeous.
