New Store on Facebook

I have created a store on Facebook. What fun and nerves. It is so easy to browse through and to purchase my bags.

My newest addition is from my "Baby Shower" Collection








IPILLOW Family

As you know I have been making IPad pillows, those very useful items that hold up your IPad, on your lap, on the bench, in the bed or on a aeroplane , just to name a few places.
My son was home for a few days and was using his phone to watch a video. A IPillow is just what he needed.
HERE IS A SMALL FAMILY OF IPILLOWS.

The largest fits any 10inch IPad or tablet
The medium fits any IPad Mini or similar size
The smallest one fits any Iphone or simlar

My family is here

Awwww.... its so nice to have some time with my children. Yes they might be adults with there own lives, but the times we are together are nice... such a small word, but all the others are too much... its just "nice' to be with them. Eating, having a few drinks, swimming, sitting in the spa and having a laugh, so nice to share it all with them.

Back to it....

I started this one just before we left and finished when we got home. It's such a cutepattern. The long straps allow you to have it across your body and the small strap closes it nice and tight.
