My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Plan ahead and dream of all the beautiful things that life has to offer

old magazines & vintage patterns for soft toys


on the weekend, my sister gave me alot of old Women's Weeklys from the 1970's. In one of them there was a pullout for old soft toy patterns...if anyone is interested in a copy..please let me know and I will post one to you. The patterns are suitable for all those cute little soft toys that everyone is making at the moment....this is a really cute little owl that I just love.
those vintage magazines are such fun to read and some of the pictures are just perfect for my collage cards that I am into at the moment....

Yes I'd love some thank you Robyn, I just love sewing and I've got loads of spare fabric lying around so it'd be good to make some soft toys etc.

Isn't it fun looking through old magazines like that. The articles and readers' views are so interesting and may be considered quaint by today's standards. I love finding those old magazines in 'antique' shops in country towns.
