IPod Case

I got a new IPod touch last week because my old IPod just didnt have enough space for everything I wanted to put on my IPod. And I'm only talking about my music and podcasts. So I quadrupled my storage space from 8gb to 32gb. That should last me for a while...hopefully. Anyway, I listen to my Ipod in my car whenever I drive using one of those FM radio transmitters and needed something to put my Ipod in to keep it safe in my bag.

I did a quick search on the internet, having a pretty good idea of what I wanted anyway and came up with this:


Simple, but effective. It is just two layers of fabric sewn together, turned out and top stitched. I added a snap closure to keep it secure.

Have a look at what other people have made for Take-A-Look Tuesday!



Happy Crafting!

My Creative Space - A Noble Cowl

I've finally finished my second Noble Cowl! Just in time for winter, too. It has spent the day in front of the heating becuase it is freezing here.


I used Madelinetosh Tosh DK in Wellwater. It is so nice and warm, as well as cosy! Winter will be a lot more memorable.

Make sure you check out Our Creative Spaces for other wonderful creative projects.

Music Monday

Whilst there hasn't been a total lack of crafting lately, there has been a heavy decline in it. And even when I am working on something, nothing is getting finished :( So I thought I would share with you a new song from Paramore that will be on the new Transformers movie. I think its a pretty good song and hope you enjoy it too!

How do you store your WIP's?

I recently broke my knitting WIP box and it got me thinking of other ways I could store my WIP's.

So, how do you store your WIP's? I'd love to see pictures if you would like to share.

Thanks :)

My Creative Space

Yesterday when I got home from work I was greeted with a lovely package from Ink & Spindle.


I just love their fabric and have used every bit I have ever bought from them. So I couldn't wait to whip this little beauty up, which is exactly what I did today. Here is the best looking wheat bag I have ever seen!


I now cant wait for there to be an occassion for me to heat it up and use it! I snatched/bought the last blue/green kit, but they still have 2 Red/Orange kits left if you are interested.

I think this is one of the only things I've made that I've started and finished in one day :)

Happenings of late

So I jave been a bit MIA from blogland for a while, and that will more than likely continue for the next few months. I start a new job this coming Wednesday so I have been busy preparing for that and it is kinda hard to gauge how full on it will be once I start so I dont know how much I'll be around.

The quilt has taken a back seat for now (I have finished sewing half of the strip into squares) and I have been spemding a bit of time knitting. I keep switching between four projects so I dont have a mass of progress to show you, but I did want to show you what I started knitting for my sister. Originally I was knitting the Ginger Leaves shawlette, but the instructions weren't very good and it was turning out wrong so i changed over to making the Tilting Tardis Cowl. The pattern is pretty easy and it is coming along well.



Let's see if I can finish it this winter!

Happy Easter :)
