Cherry Blossoms
Many cups of tea + a Green Wing marathon + thousands of tiny stitches = lots of felt cherry blossoms!
These will be cherry blossom hairbands, in pink and white & peach.

Nostalgia Fest: Friendship Bracelets
This tutorial popped up in my blog reader this morning and I just had to share it: a fantastic guide to making super-retro friendship bracelets.
You can find the tutorial (along with all sorts of other amazing projects) over at The Purl Bee (image taken from their website).
You know you're getting old when the crafts you did when you were a kid start coming back into fashion! I made so many of these when I was at primary school, and I think I may possibly still have some in a box somewhere which were lovingly made for me by my BFFs.
I am overcome with the urge to drop all my other plans for the day, dig out some embroidery thread and start making one of these but unfortunately I have work to do. Boo. Perhaps tonight, though...?

New felt colour packs: blues and greens
I've decided to discontinue my mixed "blues and greens" felt squares pack and replace it with two new bundles, one devoted to each colour.
The "brilliant blues" pack contains ten cool blue wool blend felt squares:
And the "gorgeous greens" contains a selection of ten squares that shows just how varied the colour green can be!
Both packs are now available from my Etsy shop (with international shipping) and my Folksy shop (UK only). I'm hoping to have them added to my website later this week.

Pretty Patterns
I treated myself to some delicious patterns this week, and they arrived in the post yesterday:
A Cath Kidston book bag (which I'd been eyeing up for a while and could resist no longer when it was reduced in the summer sale) and a bundle of yummy fabric from M is for Make.
Left to right: "Proteas" from Cut out and Keep by Heather Moore for Cloud 9 Fabrics; "Clearing" from Nature Walk (another fab collection from Cloud 9 Fabrics); and two colourways of "Vintage Dishes" from Ruby Star Rising by Melody Miller for Kokka.
