My Creative Space - little things to sew

I'm just gagging over how adorable this book is.
I'm a MASSIVE 'Oliver & S' fan and when I heard they were releasing a book, I headed over to The Book Depository and pre-ordered a copy for just $22. I've been waiting and waiting for it to arrive. That's probably the only down side to ordering from the Book Depository. It takes about 2 weeks to receive your book from when it's shipped - boo!
This book is just so, super sweet! I'll definitely be making Adele a red cape, though I will need to re size the pattern quite a bit.
I'm also pretty sure the boys will get little hats with ears...
And I really need a laptop bag for school, so may look into this cute satchel.
I'm just dying to make a tutu for Adele too! There's also a super cute vest for little boys that I'm thinking will happen for the boys.

Even if I don't actually use this book, it's just so beautiful to look at.

For more creative spaces, with people actually being creative, not just thinking about being creative, you know where to go....

I can't believe I'm one of the first posts on My Creative Space and I haven't got anything truely creative to show you - just this babble post. Check back in my posts for more real creativity, well if you're interested anyway.

    Oh I can see why you're gagging. That's one adorable book. The photos look so inspiring. It's a shame I can't sew to save myself... I'll have to leave it to you. Can't wait to see what you make. Pruxxx
