The 52 Marvellous Makes Madness Challenge - Weeks 35 - 40!


Hello and welcome to the next batch of marvellous makes...


Week 35


Butterfly and bunny key rings.
Made for a schoolfriend of Eldest Biscuit to take along to her Saturday night party.  Can't remember the last time I was invited to a party on a Saturday night!!
Made up from felt, fabric and buttons from their respective stashes.  A bit of making fun!



 Week 36

Owl egg cosy.
Made from a tutorial from LucyKate for one of the Nursery Nurses where I help out (pretend I have a career as a Librarian) of a Wednesday morn.  Last year I made her an owl brooch for her birthday not knowing she has collected owly things for years and years so this year when I spotted this cosy I knew who would love one.  



Week 37

Bread.
I make bread often but I thought homemade bread deserves to be in this as it is indeed a marvellous thing to make.  Have tried many different recipes but always come back to Jamie O.



Week 38


Bunny egg cosy.
Made from a Little Cotton Rabbits pattern.  Made for youngest Biscuit's teacher at Easter.  Eldest Biscuit didn't agree that his [gorgeous, young] male teacher would want one.  Made with various 4 ply from my wool stash.



 Weeks 39 and 40

  
Chocolate cake - again and again.  
 Seeing how my craft making mojo was being a fickle friend...
 Made as week 39 only to be required the next week very last minute for a work friend of Mr Biscuit.  I didn't take any photos of the second one, last minute like I said, so am making up for it by the above photo compilation extravaganza.


Only 16 makes left!  

Have a lovely weekend peeps and if praying to a God of Weather would help, please let this incessant rain stop and let there be sun.  I like a bit of rain but c'mon!!!

edit  3pm  -it has rained here for the last two weeks.  Not all day but enough to make hanging out washing risky and a nice seat out all but impossible.  Oh and it's been cold....

  4. You have rain? Send it my way, we have very severe drought - I'm longing for a long wet spell to revive my poor garden!

Had to put the annoying word verification back on as the spam was getting silly. Forgive me! Ali
