MadeIt Roulette

I've found some cute school fabric in my sewing box left over from some cushions I made for my niece. It's been made into a drawstring bag:



Cute, huh?

It's inspired my MadeIt roulette this week.
 Here are some lovely, school related finds. I don't remember school being this much fun!

Made-it Roulette

Brrr, this week's made-it roulette is brought to you by the letter c, followed by the letters h-i-l-l-y! I've had the bed socks out for a while (.. who doesn't love toasty warm feet?), but there's been a distinct nip in the air in the wee small hours that's getting me thinking about winter pjs and all things snug-as-a-bug-in-a-rug. Here's what's lighting my fire on made-it this week.

Fox in the snow

My made-it roulette is themed in celebration of Belle & Sebastian's current Australian tour. 







Fox in the snow, where do you go
To find something you can eat?
Because the word out on the street is you are starving
Don't let yourself grow hungry now
Don't let yourself grow cold
Fox in the snow

Girl in the snow, where will you go
To find someone that will do?
To tell someone all the truth before it kills you
They listen to your crazy laugh
Before you hang a right
And disappear from sight
What do they know anyway?
You'll read it in a book
What do they know anyway?
You'll read it in a book tonight

Boy on the bike, what are you like
As you cycle round the town?
You're going up, you're going down
You're going nowhere
It's not as if they're paying you
It's not as if it's fun
At least not anymore
When your legs are black and blue
It's time to take a break
When your legs are black and blue
It's time to take a holiday

Kid in the snow, way to go
It only happens once a year
It only happens once a lifetime
Make the most of it
Second just to being born
Second to dying to
What else could you do?

Love is in the air

Back from being AWOL and what better to re-start my return to the blog-o-sphere with a themed made-it roulette? With Valentine's Day this week, plus my parents' 42nd wedding anniversary and brother and sister-in-law's 4th wedding anniversary, I thought I'd see what goodies are on offer. xx

Here comes the bride


My sister-in-law's sister is getting married today. 
This has inspired a wedding-themed (kind of) made-it roulette, starting with a lovely 'sisters' illustration and my take on old, new, borrowed (or upcycled) and blue. Have a wonderful day Amanda and Mark. xx

What's black and white and red all over?


This post, that's what!

I'm in a monochromatic mood for this evening's made-it roulette. Maybe due to the new lingerie bags I am making? Fabric pieces all ready for ironing out here:


And here are my made-it finds for today. Enjoy.

Quiet reflection.

Not much to say today. Busy week end, followed by busy start to the week.


What better way to unwind than with some Made-it Roulette?

Mood enhancing Made-it Roulette

Hello, and welcome to today's made-it roulette.

I'm in a more positive mood this post.Today in my lecture we were looking at physical health issues of clients/consumers with mental health issues. Now, this isn't a psychology or a medical lecture and many students often find it hard to think laterally about this topic as it's not usually seen as a 'core' area of our work. However, with the stats that one in five people in Australia may experience depression in their lifetime and one in four may experience anxiety, it's something that everyone should know about.

In today's lecture I included some short videos from the SANE video showroom and I was amazed, as the students sat, engrossed and interested in the lived experiences of people in the clips. Interesting and respectful discussion ensued and gave me hope that this next cohort of young professionals would enter the workforce with a more holistic view of the patients they will encounter and the world in which they live.

Now, on to my Roulette finds! ("How do you play?" I hear you ask ... keep hitting that ‘made-it’ banner and see what treats come up).

Made-it Roulette...

Uuurgh, after a long, hard (but enjoyable – I *do* love my job) day at work, it’s time for a ‘buy,buy, sell,sell’ of a different kind… the crafty, handmade goodness kind. Take a peek at what I’ve been perusing tonight on made-it…..ahhhh. I love 'made-it roulette' .. just keep hitting the ‘made-it’ banner to see a random assortment of shop’s goodies. Virtual window shopping....
