    About

    These 4 critters are now on their way to Australia to live with my granddaughter. Just hope I packed enough snacks to keep them going and monkey doesn't get his doughnut confiscated by customs at the airport! Was a hard choice to choose which to make. Loved Sue's addition of a bunch of flowers for the little bear and was spoilt for choice for a dress for the bunny. Just hope they arrive safely!!

        Thanks Alison. Thought it would be a nice idea to send something over to her as we don't have any plans to visit as yet!

        @Valerie S: I have found my lovecrafts takes about 3 weeks to arrive. If it is going through Western Sydney it can take forever.

      They are beautiful especially the kitten, hope you packed some wellies and raincoats as well as it has not stopped raining and flooding in lots of areas including ours.

        Thanks Val. We have been watching the news and the weather does sound terrible. Our family are in the Brisbane area and had some flooding recently. Hope you stay safe.

      Just a simply gorgeous little collection Val. They are all beautifully made with all the lovely details you have added. The monkey has obviously taken charge of the snacks in his backpack. I hope he will share them with the others! 😂 So much love in these. 💕
