fish…..
drawn by William,
and turned into a bag by me,
pretty good match? Last night when I went to find my fabric pencil/pen thingy, of course I couldn’t find it, turned two boxes over trying and gave up. So I went downstairs, went to the blackboard and used a bit of chalk from there, and I think the result is good : )
Though William hasn’t seen it finished yet, so I may be wrong!
It is a present for his cousin who will be eight on Sunday, I’m very pleased with the bag, it has a large pocket inside and has a gusset so he should be able to cram it full of stuff.
William also drew me this,
I think I may try to do this as a bag for him : )
He also gave me this,
I don’t know what it means, what is my rank and skill? Is this like Pokemon cards? I tried to ask him and he looked at me like I was a fool!
Oh well, at least he is happy with it, and it certainly loves producing that sort of thing, stats and info and drawings are certainly his sort of thing.
There won’t be an update to either shop until after half term (next week, I can feel the dread boiling up) as I in the process of making all the bits for new bags, the boring bits, and also making some new felt for corsages. However I will try to put some bits of here for you all to see : )
Also if you are really bored you can follow me on Twitter!

excellent – you have your own trump card. Now you just need some more with the rest of the family to see who is the winner!

Love the ‘fish bag’. You could make him a ‘skill ‘card’ nd turn it into a bag for him. Perhaps you’d better find our the nitty gritty of what it ll means first though. It doesn’t get any easier when they get older – you seem to move from the mysteries of Pokemon to the unintelligible world of ‘Runescape’ – same ideas but with humans, elves, dwarves that kind of thing and quests….

Fabulous drawings! I spend ages trying to make some of my doodles look like the kids did them!

“I tried to ask him and he looked at me like I was a fool!”
Oh so many times I’ve had that look from my brother! He’s just turned 11, and is Autistic. He does a similar thing to the “Top Trumps” cards, but in conversation; my Grandma got only a “1 for friendliness” this week, because she didn’t offer him cake!
