I wish...

...I could make time stand still so I'd be able to finish all my WIPs (Works In Progress). My last post was 2 weeks ago and that's because I've been busy making these felt bookmarks.

They are gifts for some of the staff at my son's school. I also made little Thank You notes to go with the bookmarks inside the personalized envelopes, all 7 of them! Not that many but time consuming.

Also, I've set myself a challenge which is to try and come up with some nice designs for tall cards. It was only recently I realised I make mainly square or C6 cards, the square ones being my favourites. To see my most recent cards, please click here.

As for WIPs, I'm working on a curtain for my son's bedroom, it's navy blue and it's going to have a sea theme with lots of fish, sea weed, boats, submarines etc. made out of felt. Then I'm going to make some curtains for my bedroom also with appliques but I haven't decided on a theme yet.

Also, I've entered this competition to make either a Christmas gift or decoration so I need to decide what I'm making as the deadline is the end of September. If you'd like to enter the competition, join the Christmas Gift Projects-arts and crafts group on Flickr.
