Way Behind ...............

sigh! 7 days with no sewing, doesn't make me happy, but I'm starting to sew again this afternoon, so piccies should be popping up soon on the CK site, they will be the new size 1's. Some AIO and fitteds.

For those customs ordered through GD, they are finished bar one.

The pre-orders from FB will be out by end of next week.

I'll also be putting up a few pre-orders from some brand spanking new fabrics, lead time on these will be 2 -3 weeks, but I expect to have them to you faster than that. Again check out the CK site.

Down for the count

Sorry ladies will be a couple of days before I can get back to emails and the orders that I have here.

I've wrenched my back and am currently lying flat on my back. I've seen the chiro but my back is in spasm at the moment and I'm currently on painkillers.

I'll get back to everyone as soon as I can. Gotta love hubby's laptop so I could update you.

It's a reversible cross over back dress, with a matching nappy. Both have been appliqued.

Racecourse Road Street Party

Was very very hot, but the kids had fun, but no rides that we could see. They indulged in icecream, and it was fantastic, little tiny dots of ice-cream in different flavours, they didn't melt like normal ice-cream and they tasted delicious!!!

And you can see William's Jetta's Next Pirate shirt, peeking just here.



And fairyfloss on a stick, and lollipops and then we found my Nirvana!!!



Cupcakes!!!!!! from Tabitha and aren't they gorgeous, just bite sized, though she does make bigger, but they were delicious. I had the caramel and you get a burst of oozy caramel when you bite into it. Shane had maple pecan and K picked a gorgeous cookie, William just wanted the Fairy Floss from the stall next door. I wish I'd bought more, especially now that I've lost my voice and am feeling less than stellar.



Caramel, I wish I'd taken a picture of the inner, but it was too good!! and look it has pretty sparkles as well.



Maple Pecan




Katherine and her ducky cookie, which was delicious she tells me.

Happy 6th Birthday William



Well it was William's 6th Birthday this week and 3 cakes isn't too many is it lol!! He had a blast all week, week long celebrations, that what I reckon we should have for every birthday.

He had a couple of little friends on Sunday for a run around the back yard and a play And he choose a pirate topper and candles, with a chocolate cake and chocolate frosting.



And then on Wednesday we made cupcakes for school. Plain vanilla with either pink or blue icing and sprinkles, as you can see little Miss K helped with those lol. Check out the awesome goodies she's wearing. A gorgeous apron and chef's hat by the talented Kat and the lovely little Pint from Megsie.



And then on Saturday we had Nana and Pop come down with a Ben10 Ice Cream Cake.





We now have lots of new Lego floating around the house and some awesome Dino and Ben Ten Jammies. We have a gorgeous t-shirt from Jetta's Nest. Will pop in with some photos after we tackle the Racecourse Road Street Party today.

And Miss K didn't go without either, Megsie sent her a Pint Dolly named Katie - she is gorgeous and K won't put her down. She told me yesterday to be quiet, I was going to wake up Baby Dolly

Hmmm, I think

I've found my inner hippy. I'm having lots of fun with this month's theme on Gossamer Dreams. I've just put this nappy up for preview over at Gossamer Dreams, it will go live tonight.

It's a denim outer, appliqued nappy - with Groovy on the back and some wild ramblings on the front.




I'm just finishing off the semi-customs and auctions from Gossamer Dreams, and a couple of overdue customs and then I'll be starting on the new size 1 nappies to be stocking next week. Lots of testing has gone into these nappies, and I have had nothing but positive feedback. These will fit from approximately 4.5kg to 9.5 kg, though they have been worn by both an 11kg and 12kg bubbas, but like any nappy, measurements are much more important.

As always we welcome feedback and thoughts on any of our products, so please feel free to contact us at anytime :)

My little Mad Scientist

Well today was wacky Wednesday at school, with Science Experiments and dress as a Mad Scientist. This is what William decided on - he's so cute, and had a fantastic day. He can't tell me how many marbles his tinfoil boat held, but many the teacher will know tomorrow.


Update

Well the hunt is in full swing. Lots of hunters finding icons and wonderful goodies to purchase.

It's my turn to stock on Gossamer Dreams and I've done a lottery for an appliqued Auriel 'Peace' is available to enter the lottery until approximately 11pm tonight.



A close up of the applique.

I also have the collaboration with Mel on Beetlebums for the Duck Set - we decided the fairest thing to do was to relist the auction. Please dig deep for this worthy cause.

And on my site I have a CUSTOM SLOT up for grabs. This is a special custom slot, as you'll be able to have an appliqued Auriel, along with either a standard Auriel or HoneyBoy!

I'm currently working on some more dyed fitteds to put up, along with some HoneyBoy! Basics to put up later today or tomorrow.

My Step Dad Gerry has just undergone a Pacemaker operation in Bundaberg, but as it turns out now needs to come to Brisbane for further surgery, so please excuse the randomness of any stockings for the next week or so. I may not get as much stock up as I would like, as both he and my Mum need family support at the moment.

Welcome to the Nappy Hunt

Yes everyone it's that time again, the bi-annual Cloth Nappy Hunt has begun - if you haven't already registered, you can do so here

Our new website is up and running, we are having a slight delay in having our email address' switched over to the new server, so if you have emailed over the last couple of days and not received a reply, please visit the new website and contact us via the home page.

Please take a few moments to get acquainted with our new site, if you are intending to purchase in September, in particular we have changed our payment terms, so pop along to our FAQs and have a quick squizz.

Some nappies are already up previewing, but I have a few more going up tonight as well, a couple of cotton print outers and some more hand dyed goodies.

More Hand dyes and some HoneyBoy! Fitteds will be going up later in the week. Remember we are randomly stocking during the hunt. Or you can also check out Gossamer Dreams as the girls are stocking one item a day during the month of September.

Here's just a teaser of the hand dyed nappies coming.




Unfortunately we had a non-contact bidder on our Watato Auction which is deeply upsetting and disappointing for both Mel and I. We have however offered the auction to the next highest bidder so that the monies raised can still be sent to this worthy cause.

As a result of this however I am putting in place a new policy for auctions. If you are a new purchaser of Cherub's Kiss you will be contacted once you have placed a bid to verify that your details are correct. If return contact isn't made, we will have Congo Cart delete your bid. This may seem harsh, but it is unfair to genuine bidders and ourselves to be messed around, particularly for Charity Auctions.
