What a fabulous couple of days for Little Diva...

Little Diva has really been getting out there over the last couple of days.

Firstly my Butterfly Girls Skirt was picked for the "Made It" shopping guide.


Then the lovely Jo from Babyjo did a beautiful post on her blog.


Then, just as I was heading over to type this post, I checked my emails and there was one from Bec at Made It telling me that my new singlet tops had been featured on the Kids Style File website as part of the "Five Fabulous Finds: Cute as Pie Pieces for your Little Miss".


and if that isn't enough, my Easy Peasy Girls Skirt Pattern kit (one of my Usew2 Etsy Store items) was featured in an Etsy Gift Guide - "DIY Made Simple".


So, it's all very exciting and now I'd better go as the kids are screaming at each other in the background!! Ahhh, back to reality....

Hoot.... Hoot.... can you hear them coming!!


You'll probably remember these Owls I made for Jo from Lovestamp recently for her market stall:


Well, the lovely Jo has been fielding so many customer queries at the markets for me that I've decided to start making some (with her approval of course!!).

I've got quite a bit of sewing to do over the next few weeks but once that is done I'll make some Owls (hopefully before my next market, Boutique Markets on Sunday 9th August). Of course I can custom make in the fabrics or colours of your choice too.

So keep following my blog or sign up for my newsletter (just send me your email address) to find out when they're available.

If you want to see them on the Lovestamp stall, click here and here for some photo's.

EDIT: 29Jul - It doesn't look like I'll have any owls made for the next Boutique Markets on 9th August so if you really want one for a gift or anything in the next 3-4 weeks, let me know and I'll make one especially for you in fabrics of your choice.

Cute new girls singlets....

I've finally got around to listing some of my girls singlets in my Made It store...

The Snigglebottom's feature on My Child blog...

It was very exciting today when Jodie from Love Mum (one of my new stockists) called to tell me that the Snigglebottom's were featured on the My Child Magazine blog.

Click here and scroll down if you want to read their rather amusing take on them....

I wonder what's next for the Snigglebottom Family ??
