A visit to Borders yesterday saw me buying this lovely, lovely book. I just can't wait to get making some of these softies. They are gorgeous! I can see some children getting softies for their birthdays etc. as I try making all the ones I love (which is quite a few).
And sorry, but you can't look inside this one, I just copied the picture and ended up with that. But I put this book down went to the movies with Emma and longed for it so I had to go back and get it. All of the gorgeous creatures in this book are made from gloves. I am busting to make one but guess what? It is summer and there are NO gloves. So I think this one might sit on my bookshelf for while, while I search for some gloves.
There are a few other books I am busting to buy but I couldn't find them in the bookshops so I think I will have to order them online, and also I have discovered that they are much cheaper at the online book shops (not sure about postage though).
I know I have been slack this last week as I worked everyday bar Tuesday, and this week will be busy too, it is a wonderful little girl's 5th birthday next weekend with so much stuff to organise before then.
If you have any books that I would love and may not know about please let me know.

Deb, what a great idea! The books look lovely! I love the "Softies" book. I just bought a set of three craft mags, they were in the same pack for $10. I'll get back to you with any interesting content. Do like the idea of having books around my hobbies.
