Before I declare my love, a quick round up of some of the things I've made during November:
Retro Flower Quilt, Vintage sewing pouch, Christmas table cloth, vintage embroidery, Kids 'Good' reward chart, donkey basket, Starry Starry notebook cover, Bienvenue Bebe Quilt.
I also made some Rose Star blocks and blocks for the How Far Will You Go? QAL.
All in all a great month, I imagine December will be a little less productive as I am getting more and more tired - also it really is hard to sit still for too long so can only manage bits of sewing here and there. I do have one quilt I want finished before Christmas though and a couple of little projects in the works but we'll see - comfort is the key in these last few weeks of pregnancy!
Linking up to Lynne's Fresh Sewing Day
Now I have to share...
I have discovered the most wonderful Etsy shop! It is called Made In Pixieland and I came across it when I was searching for reasonable priced cute notecards because I can never have too many of those.
I struck gold - Claire is so talented, she draws the most adorable pictures and she designs prints and cards and other gorgeousness. She uses 100% recycled card and paper, as well as vegetable based inks.
My order arrived quick time and I have already placed another, that's how much I love the quality and the whimsical nature of the cards made me smile so much.
I'm happy to support a small business in the UK, I'm happy she has 'green' credentials but mostly I can't help just fall in love with her characters and vintage style.
I highly recommend a fun trip to Pixieland and I know I'm saving for one of those ballerina baubles and a delightful print.
p.s. just to clarify - I don't know Claire, she did not ask me to write anything, I genuinely just love her products and there is no commission involved Susan ;) but I do hope you'll all support her!
p.p.s. Those fruit loop muffins did not go well the other day. Not sure what I did wrong but I will be making courgette muffins this weekend - yummy and I'm sure a bit healthier.

Thanks so much for the heads up on the notecards. They are amazing! And so are all your makes for the month! Wow! I adore your sewing machine pouch.
Gorgeous sewing and love the note cards. Off to investigate. Hope you are on commission! ;-)
Great work Lucy! So many beautiful things! You have earned a rest - hope you get one!
Such lovely things this month! I love the Rewards chart, it's a lovely idea :D If you run out of energy to make more badges, you could always use scout or guide ones! Hope you have a happy and restful December.

Great makes and you're making me want to go browse on Etsy. My brain must be fuddled as I read the last bit twice and thought why is she going to make concrete Muffins....hmmm
