Last night I went round to to a friend's house for a crafty night and made one of the doll baskets I had been planning to make my girls for Easter. The doll I made a while ago, might not yet be on my blog, since I'm slowly back-dating)

The pattern is from a book my mother-in-law kindly bought me called Applique for Little Ones (Author Sylvie Blondeau) ..one down, one (or possibly 2 if I decide to make my neice one too) to go.

My only disappointment is how it doesn't hold it's shape properly...not sure how to fix that :(

Today has been packed full of fun and playing.

After lunch, I put the youngest down for her nap and the biggest and I did some baking. Cherry vanilla cupcakes...Mmmmm...I haven't baked with Rheya for ages, so she was quite excited about it :D

Ta da! I was gonna pipe them but the bag is missing from the set :(  I managed to make one from a food bag, but it broke after one bun.
