Nana'S Keepsakes

Another from the past couple of weeks. To remember a special Nana. Huge thanks to Lianne and Michelle xx

A few orders completed and away this week. More pics once received... and starting on the next project which will keep me busy a couple of weeks. Huge thanks to all x

Hi all, hoping some of you can help. The past few months Facebook seems to have changed the way it works and posts just aren't being seen the way they used to. Along with the fact they removed my rating (grrrrrr) and no-one seems to know why I've decided to put more focus into setting up my Etsy shop. So I am asking all you lovely people that have an Etsy account if you could pop on over and give it a little ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks x

With the weather the way it is, it's hard to believe that in a couple of weeks will be the school summer holidays! So what do you do with that school uniform, maybe moving on from P1 or P7, or leaving school completely. Why not turn them into a keepsake. Bear example shown but can be lion, monkey, elephant, hippo, dolphin, bunny or puppy x

And the winner is....
Angela Shaw Garvie - Congratulations!
As the response was so great I have also decided to add a 2nd prize of £20 voucher towards an item(s) of your choice...
... Janice Hannaway - Congratulations!
I have messaged you both.
Thank you to all who entered and keep an eye posts for further offers coming over the next couple of months x

It's beginning to look a lot like .......

Another sample cushion, maybe should have done the year bigger and the full date, but happy with how this one has turned out. Front has extra wadding to give full cushion look x

Hm, what could this be for?

Meet Hettie. Just like the real thing, quite "bulky" in size! Standard size 12.5" Length and 8.5" Height £30, Large 14.5" x 9 £35 and X Large is 17" x 10.5" £40.

To accompany their blankets, Isla and Hannah also have matching cushions, perfect for cuddling up on these cold and rainy days, many thanks to Fiona x

Introducing "Dizzy" Available in 3 sizes - Standard 14.5" £25, Large 16" £30 and X Large 18" £35. Pictures shown standard made from a muslin and cotton blanket, Large and X Large age 3-4 pyjamas. If using baby clothes for large or X Large may have to be more patchworky similar to example below

Huge thanks to Fiona for these two - now off to keep Isla and Hannah cosy x

All marked up ready to cut! Among orders will be a few weeks before the reveal of "Sparkles", "Hettie" and "Dizzy" x

This one has now reached his new home. All 6lb 3oz of him! Huge thanks to Mandy x

Huge thanks to Elaine for trusting me with this one special outfit. 29 years old and going home outfit for 2 baby girls x

The norm for a patch on a cushion or blanket is "This is a shirt/something/etc I used to wear" Whilst it is a personal choice I've thought maybe can put something different on the patches for embroidery. So I'm going to stitch these out to see how they work but in the meantime would love your feedback on the wordings. 1. Those we love, don't go away. Unseen, unheard but always near. Still loved, still missed and very dear. 2. NAME - Remembering you is easy, I do it every day.... Missing you is the heartache that never goes away. 3. When tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart. For every time you think of me, I'm right there in your heart. 4. When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure. 5. I'm not gone, I'm right there beside you. You can't see me, but I'm always with you.
