I finally managed to get something sorted for the upcycle competition at folksy. This purse and pouch were made from an unraveled knitted scarf, lined with fabric from a pillow case, all bought from a local charity shop, washed and upcycled into something new. I don’t expect to be a winner, I just wanted to take part in it. The other entries can be seen here . Please pop over and bid, it’s all for a good cause.

The giveaway for the Christmas decorations  has just been drawn . I put all  the names into a bowl and Joss picked one out. Sorry I couldn’t get any photos, it’s so dark here. The winner is Charlotte Hupfield. Charlotte makes lovely ceramic pieces that can be seen here . I will be in touch for your details Charlotte. Sorry to everyone who didn’t win, I do have some decorations in my Folksy shop if anyone’s interested.
