Godmuvva Is Having a Nostalgia Trip




A big hi to all Da Godmuvva's blogging friends again. Godmuvva wanted to share Ernie with you today. Ernie is now about 35 years old. Godmuvva made Ernie for her youngest daughter who is almost 37, and now living in Japan.

Ernie sat in the cupboard living a very lonely existence for many years, Ernie moved house with our family a couple of times. And now Ernie has earned pride of place back in the Toy Box !! Darling Grandaughter Nanny’s “Missy Moo” now gives Ernie all the love and affection he has missed out on while waiting patiently in that dark cold cupboard all those years for somebody to play with. Poor Ernie,it gets very cold in there in winter..


Ernie is ageing and now looks pretty old and tattered and worn, but hey he never complains. Ernie needs attention to his left eye, and needs new shoe laces, but still very capable of giving out lots of love at affection.

Godmuvva's Strawberry & Violet Creations







Hi all, Godmuvva is back with her finished Strawberry Booties, as promised. I just wanted to share them with you, I am very pleased with the end result, I must admit, Godmuvva sure had to have a few of those "bathtime inspirations" to finish them. She wanted to knit seperate soles with the Strawberry booties and just wasn't sure how to do it. A few more baths, a bit more thinking and ta da....here they are. Of course you can't just have a lone pair of booties, they get very lonely sitting there on their own, so Godmuvva made a pair of "Voilet" bootees to keep the Strawberries company, so please enjoy as much as Godmuvva enjoys making them.

Godmuvva Would Like To Share A Cupcake

Morning everybody Godmuvva just popped in to share a cupcake with you while you are sitting here waiting for her to finish her Strawberry Bootees. Won't be long now, maybe tomorrow.

Meanwile Godmuvva has a story to share with you, Godmuvva's darling oldest daughter phoned her inlaws recently,Father In Law Bill answered the phone, Darling Daughter said "Oh Hello Bill how are you going?" CLUNK!!! Bill slammed the phone down in her ear......Darling Daughter waited for a while and rang back to find out what she had done to upset him. This time Di answered the phone, Darling Daughter remarked to Di that she had phoned earlier and that Bill had hung up on her. Di said "Oh it was you....Bill said .....I just had another one of those Telemarketers on the phone again, so I hung up on them !!"" Bill has a bit of a hearing problem apparently....

Godmuvva's Been Re-shuffling & Recycling





Well this time I have doing a bit of re-shuffling. I knitted a hot water bottle cover with a teddy bear theme, nope.........didn't like the severity of the bright pink teddy bear head, so I took it off, knitted a softer pink furry sheep head (and legs etc.) and bingo !! It looks much better now !! So then this sheep had to have a mate of course......mmmmmmm.....maybe a green and chocolate sheep would look nice....
And so I just keep on creating...and because I am a pretty thrifty Godmuvva, I knitted a coathanger and re-used the teddy bear head..it's called "recycling" I guess ...anyway....I sure hope you enjoy Godmuvva's latest creations folks..

Da Godmuvva's Latest Bathtime Inspirations











Godmuvva creates her
craft while soaking in the bath !! Maybe because it’s the only time Godmuvva
can be alone and have some peace so that she can think !!


Hi Guys, Godmuvva would like to share with you her latest
bathtime inspiration. Coathangers for both adults and children. Godmuvva would like to apologise for the “not
the best” photographer, as Most Honorable Godfavva is THE Photographer,(or so he thinks , he is the bestest ha ha), and
nope…….he doesn’t have much imagination when it comes to taking crafty piccies. I see he doesn’t even check and
straighten the coathangers if they are bent over !! Godfavva might have to get a reduction in pay
for that one me thinks !!!

A Glorious Birthday Morning Tea In The Country



Hi everybody, well it’s certainly been a long time since Da Godmuvva has been back
to her blog but she promises to be round more often in 2012. I do hope I
still have at least ONE follower….. Hey Jude are you still around……LOL

I think I will start my blog afresh in 2012. Same Godmuvva........fresh news....

We had a lovely morning tea at Kentucky Roses (http://www.kentuckyroses.com.au/) on January
7 for my darling daughter’s 40th birthday on January 8, same day as Elvis was born, how cool is that. Kentucky Roses setting was absolutely beautiful, andwith being set in the country it just seemed so very quiet and peaceful. No noise of traffic etc., as you enjoyed the most sumptious home made slices and cakes, to die for, while sitting amongst the most delightful rose gardens Godmuvva has experienced for a while. Kentucky Roses has a truly country feel, with chickens pecking in the garden as you enjoy your coffee. They (chickens) even had guinea fowl for a friend. Godmuvva's darling grandchildren just loved the chickens, so much so, they asked their father would he buy them a chicken pleeeeeeeeeeze. He said yes, he would certainly buy them a chicken, on Monday, at the supermarket deli in town, no problems……ha ha ha
To finish off today I just had to add a piccie of my beautiful grandchildren sitting amongst the roses. No no, Godmuvva is not at all biased, she just loves her grandies to bits !! More on Kentucky Roses soon, so please stick around for the next instalment........
