Lil’ bit of Sugar and a Moobear
June 19, 2009
DIY traditionally has been slightly naff. You know what it’s like, often the best intended DIY project ends up a little worse for wear (or is that just me?). Well not over at A little bit of Sugar. Lucy came up with the idea of tiling her custom made desk with vintage scrabble tiles and it looks absolutely amazing.
While I’m on the inspiring recycled objects front, Steph over at Moobear creates gorgeous t-shirts for kids featuring recycled fabric motifs. Her kids actually do the illustrations and she turns them into designs for t-shirts. How cool is that? My favourite is the bubble factory, who doesn’t need a little bubble manufacturing in their life? What a clever Bizness Babe she is.
Hello. My name is Claire. I have a sock toy addiction. It began two years ago when I was pregnant and nesting. At first I dismissed it. I hadn't sewn in years. "Craft Schmaft" I said. Well it seems this crafty thing is here to stay. This blog brings you the delights of making sock softies, fabric finds and crafty inspiration from round the interweb.

These are great, thanks for sharing your inspirations. I’ve got several DIY projects I’m hoping to try, but the ‘naff-ness’ potential is a little offputing!

The tee shirts are great. I struggle with patience for applique, but I should put more effort in, the detail you can achieve is amazing.
