Hello 2013..

...you came around so quickly..  Hopefully it is going to be a busy year for LadyBug Creations.

It's certainly going to be a busy start to the year. I've an order for a cot quilt set, done in Cath Kidston style colours and fabrics.. I'm really looking forward to this one. 

It's going to be very pretty. Pictures will follow as it progresses.

Apart from the quilt set, I've got order for bean bags for a friends' little girls, possible order for a pair of cushions for another friend who wants something different for her youngest daughter's christening (one for each daughter as she can't get one without the other..) and some christmas bunting for an artist friend who is going to swap me a framed drawing for the bunting. 

Last cot quilt I made was for a little lady called Isabelle..Pink, white and grey. Found a grey spotty fabric, which at first I thought was too dark, but when out with the other fabrics and edged by pink spotty ribbon, looked really nice together... 

Judge for yourself.. what do you think?

Personalised bunting £15

Cot quilt, bumper and bunting £60

A couple of other things that I got finished in between the insanity of Christmas in the paid job, was a small stocking for a friend's son's 1st Christmas, Christmas banner (not bunting in the traditional triangle) complete with bells and an apron.. 

Apron £10

Christmas banner £20

Medium stocking £15

It's not the best photo of the banner, but it was the best I could get.. All other attempts ended up having bits missing or looking as though I'd taken the photo in a dark cave. 

Everything you see on here is available to order.. I did only make one of each due to lack of space at the time, and obviously, lack of time as it was all done November/December last year.. 

Tree stocking £5

I am going to make up some different stockings, some bigger, some the same size, and as the picture above shows, some that you can hang on your tree.

Hope 2013 is going to be a prosperous one for everyone.. If you are interested in anything you see, please get in touch. Either email me at : ladybugcreations@hotmail.co.uk ,leave a comment on here or follow me on Twitter @lady_bug74

Busy busy..

Things have been a bit busy here are ladybug towers recently. I've had lots of overtime at the paid job (always good) but it does tend to eat into the crafting time.


Still.. I have a very happy customer with the quilt and bumper set, she was delighted and said that she was glad she text me and asked.
She collected her quilt set from where I work (she works for same company) took it home and with in 2 hours she had text me photos of the bunting/quilt and bumper all in place.

Next up is a set for her sister. Pink, white and grey this time. I've got some very pretty pink spotty ribbon that was an absolute bargain on www.simplyribbons.com 100m for just £18 in the sale.. and it is exactly what I was looking for. The name for the bunting is already cut out and the flags are about to be done this afternoon. Its a cold miserable day outside that staying in and sewing seems like a much better idea. 

I've also completed some Halloween bunting for a friend who is completely Halloween bonkers.. hope she likes it.

As well as the bunting, I'm also going to be working on some Christmas stocking ideas..keep 'em crossed.
