Little Moo's Shop

DUE TO THE DISMAL PERFORMANCE OF THE AUSTRALIAN DOLLAR, ALL MY ITEMS IN MY ETSY SHOP HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO REFLECT THE FALL IN THE DOLLAR.

AUSTRALIAN CUSTOMERS CAN RECEIVE FREE SHIPPING UNTIL THE 15TH NOVEMBER 2008. I HOPE THIS HELPS SOME AUSTRALIAN BUYERS OUT FOR A WEE WHILE, BECAUSE I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS AT THE MOMENT.

And The Winner Is:

The winner of the bag give away was drawn this afternoon. Congratulations Drewzel the bag is all yours. Just pop me an email with your address and I shall send it on its way tomorrow before work. A huge thank you to all who posted, I very much appreciate your lovely comments and thank you for making me smile.

Little Stormy

I'm a Brisbane girl through and through, I have never lived anywhere else. In fact I work in the same hospital I was born in. Very boring I know. I don't do change well. I have always loved when the storms roll through Brisbane. I love the change in the air and the relief from the suffocating humidity. The photo above was taken from my deck on Tuesday afternoon. We were all tucked up inside when the lightning came so its only of the dark clouds as the came across.

Don't forget the bag will be drawn this afternoon!

Lovely Suprises

On Sunday morning I had the most wonderful pleasure of being contacted by McHats a Sydney estian via an Etsy convo. Sue (McHats) is an absolute delight and extremely generous. Sue made my Sunday. If you are looking for a hat pattern she has some beautiful and classic patterns for sale. I can't wait to one out when I can find the time.

The lovely badskirt has this great post about her first market experience. There are some great tips here and oh so nice of her to share.

Not so much crafting happening at Little Mary Moo's Place due to a phenomenal amount of ironing that has been lovingly created by the little Moos.

Thanks For The Smiles

Thank you for all your lovely comments on my give away post. I came home to three over tired very cranky and just more than a wee bit naughty girls last night. To top it off I had a bit of a crap day at work. So thank you all for putting a smile on my face . Much appreciated. I'm currently having a disagreement with my sewing machine so I'm hoping that a warm cup of tea and some nice company on the crafty blog scene will fix all my woes.

These pictures are of my littlest. They were taken down at the local creek when we were catching tadpoles. They had so much fun. I was sitting a fair distance away with the zoom on so I could catch the excitement and the giggles. These photos are some of my favourite. Looking at them again reminds me that the girls can be so much fun and the grumps do pass.

Take Me Home - GIVE AWAY

In the spirit of all things lovely and nice in the crafty blogosphere here is my first give away. She's a simple tote bag made with a soft red stripped stretchy denim. Inside is lined with a crisp white cotton. The front of the bag features a pocket made from Kokka's Doll fabric. There is a small magnetic clasp in the facing at the top.

I will be drawing a winner randomly on the 23rd of October 2008. All you have to do to be eligible for the draw is to leave a comment about what made you smile today - hopefully something you are grateful for. Please make sure I can contact you through a link when you comment just in case the winner is you.

Ok what made me smile today was a crazy dog I saw when I went to pick up my groceries. He was having a lovely roll in something that was probably very smelly while the poor girl walking him was trying in vain to pull him away. I was grateful that I have one dog who is to lazy to go for a walk and another who is to manic to take out in public because I am sure one of them would of done exactly the same to me.

BrisStyle Market

Go check out this post here for more information. Very exciting indeed and much more fun than shopping in any crowded shopping centre a week and a half out from Christmas.
