these are great Adele!

Well I would have said the same Melis, and after the first day I really only had the base made (we did spend some time gathering stuff in the woods though) I honestly thought my attempt would be awful, but the base was probably the hardest bit - a lot of different stages which we had to be shown one...

Went on a basket-making course and amazed that I actually managed to make something that looked like a real basket :lol: The first stage was so slow I thought I'd never get there, but then it just grew and grew! A bit big for the bread-basket I thought I might manage!! Maybe I'll do another course n...

They are great! I'm sure I still have some similar birdies cut out of paper scraps which I made yonks ago. Some day I may find them and use them...

Haha! I remember those crochet bikinis!
Like the one with bells - would be good baby gift.

I looked on amazon and the book seems to be in Japanese! I love the little sparrows, but they are all really clever.

Cute!

How very sad

These are lovely Carolyn - I especially like the silhouette ones

Sounds like fun though!

Lovely - I especially like the birdies!

They look good!
I did the shirts too, back in the day!!

Sewing is really not my thing Carolyn, but I like admiring other people's handiwork
I am working up to challenging myself to make my niece's 30th birthday card though and I will try very hard to remember to take a photo and post it!

Intrigued! Looking forward to seeing what you all make!

Don't do it for me really - would be better without the collar/lead bit I think. Don't like Radley bags either
