I have made myself a denim apron, embellished with some simple stitchery, out of this book.
I made myself a pair of PJ’s out of some fabric I bought from here.
I have been working on some items for my cupcake swap this week but can’t give much away yet! My pincushion swap was mailed a week ago and I will post photos as soon as my partner has received it.

The crochet hook roll is fabulous, was it fairly straightforward to make? Love your fabrics. You didn't miss much with the Water Horse.
The apron, PJs and crochet hook roll are all lovely. Your work is just beautiful. And I love your choice of fabric ... I have just spent some time drooling over the Hancock's of Paducah site. I'm afraid I probably should never have clicked on that particular link :)
Everything lovely! You have been very busy.
I'm trying to make a crochet case, but the first tries became "manicure sets :!
Wowee you've been busy! Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous is all I can say!
I need to make myself one of those rolls for all of my knitting needles and crochet hooks so I can stop rifling through my bag searching for them!
I love the stitching detail on the apron, I'm a big fan of being able to see topstitching and decorative stitching on items.
I love the apron, hook roll and pj's.... they're all so lovely and the fabrics you used are so pretty!
What a lot of projects you have done! And it all looks wonderful, the stitching on the apron is so nice. And the crochet-hook-roll is a great idea!
Wow you have been busy - I love your projects here, especially the crochet hook roll. What a great idea! Hope the rest of the hols are as creative and fun.
wow, you have been busy - really pretty fabrics on the roll too

Lovin that apron. The stitching really makes it special.
Wow! There's no time wasting around your place is there? My mum would love the crochet hook roll. She is a habitual crocheter! Jen
Hey Sugar, I LOVE the crotchet hook roll. I have been trying to make one of those for ages, so am going to look very closely at yours. Thanks for re-inspiring me.
I love everything- so creative and fun!!
I loved looking over what you've been working on. It makes me wish I could sew and make my own clothes.
The apron looks great and I love the fabric you used in the crochet hook roll. I love Hancocks too!!!
Enjoy the holidays. Ours are almost over and I am dreading the early starts again...:0(
Kathryn.

Your items are so beautiful Lisa - I love the apron especially.
I just thought I'd pop in and let you know that the swap details are up on my blog - just incase you still wanted to join in.
Have a lovely weekend,
Melx
You have completed some beautiful creations. I love the fabric you have used.
Oh, I love that crochet roll. I definitely need one of those. Did you use a pattern from somewhere or are you just very clever?
I am working on my cupcake swap too. Would love to chat about ideas as I am suffering from an inspiration block. If you're interested e-mail me at cathkirwan(at)optusnet(dot)com(dot)au
Goodness! How productive you are. I have so much to do I can't pick which project to start so I'm just sitting here instead! I think I need a list for the weekend! That apron is wonderful!
I love those jammies-there is nothing like a new pair! Also, the crochet hook roll is awesome. My grammie made me a knitting needle roll like that and I cherish it-it was modeled after the one her grammie made for her!
Thanks for your comment-I do love Donna Hay very much-if only her magazine wasn't so expensive here in the States! I can't choke down the $15/month
Gorgeous projects! The crochet hook is roll is a great idea!
You have been very busy lately!I love the fabrics.
regards Laura
everything is beautiful! you guys are inspiring me to get to work on my project plans!
I love the apron too. Very chic. And my goodness those brownies in the last post look terribly good! (terrible for the hips, good for the tummy!)
Hi Lisa and Sarah - you girls have been very creative and busy so far over the school holiday. Love the projects you have finished Lisa, you have such lovely colour choices. A fabulous day for sewing today - really wet and yucky outside. I had lessons last night at UFO club stitching on hand applique - so hard to do little stitches - though am training myself to slow down - all for the butterfly garden BOM...
Hugs Jx
ooo I love all your holiday sewing and something for yourself? How unusual.
I am absolutely loving your apron, it is gorgeous. And the crochet roll is beautiful too, and such lovely fabric. You have a lucky mum :)
So nice to catch up on all you've been making! Glad you & the family are feeling better and on the mend. Those brownies look scrummy...and the guest room transformation is fantastic! Happy Crafting :o)

Your projects are all so lovely. I don't know which I love the best.....but the crochet hook roll is fab! I need to try to make myself one......was it difficult?
I love everything you've made! Perfect! Very inspirational to me. It must feel so satisfying to get so much done!!!
