my creative space - softie

mary jane softie

I've never made a softie before, but I'm determined to join in this year's Softies for Mirabel, such a wonderful cause. I'm sewing without a pattern, just playing around and this is as far as I've got! And yes the minute I'd finished these denim mary janes I was thinking I should have done them in red! I'm not sure what the rest of this person looks like but hopefully it will come to me :-)

Thanks again for all your lovely comments on the Mix 'n Match Giveaway, its been fascinating to see your choices, come and enter if you haven't - its still open until Saturday, and thanks also for the support for Tiel's wonderful Show & Tell interview.

To see some more creative types I'm off now to Kirsty's.

    I think you are doing very well. I have often thought of joining in but every draft I do just looks ridiculous so i have given up on the softies at this stage. Cherrie

    Starting with the shoes - great idea. I'm meaning to join in too - just got a couple of other things to do first... but we'll get there. Looking forward to seeing the full softie!
