The Giant Die!!!!


Here is a little sneak preview... I am gonna try and take some better pics.
Its lovely my son loves it! Giant dice to play with are brilliant!
Its all made of felt with incredible detail, everything is hand sewn and embroidered, no lazy machine sewing here, everything is 2D.
All the sides have numbers and the respective number of items on it.
1 = Rabbit
2= Carrots
3= Flowers
4= Fruit trees
5= Slices of pizza
6= Burning candles
Great to use as a soft toy, a giant die for board games, learning numbers & counting as all the pictures are recognizable. Countless of hours of play & learning!
It takes me a great deal of time and care to make one of these but they are so beautiful, its definately worth it!
Great gift for the kids!
Hope you like it.

NEW ARRIVAL COMING NEXT YEAR!

Hyia,

I have been absent for a while but now have great news...

WE ARE HAVING A BABY!!!! Yes I am 8 weeks pregnant!

Feeling the strain this time, very tired very nauseous... not having the best time! y mum says its because its a girl (apparently that also makes me look rubbish as I do now!)

My midwife says it could be twins as I have twins on both sides of the family...mine and my hubby's! Great now we are all in suspense until the 5 of December...when I have my first scan...then we will know if its one or two babies...

My son knows that there is a baby in mummy's belly so he keeps on telling me to open my belly button so he can see! LOL

Speak to you soon!

Monica
