The last of them ......

The last of the New Customer orders (well bar one, but that's not being sent just yet) and a custom lottery slot from OZeBaby. I still have a couple more things that need finishing before I go - but I'm hoping that will only take a little while in the morning before we head off.

For Lindsay - 2 Medium/Long HoneyBoy! Fitteds



For Nat - 1 fitted Auriel and 1 AIO Auriel



For Kristy - 1 Medium/Long HoneyBoy! and 1 Medium HoneyBoy! Unisex and both Quick Dry AIO's.



For Vicky - for a new bubba yet to make her appearance, and isn't the small sized raphael gorgeous - the photos don't do it justice, the colours are just beautiful, just like a raspberry sorbet.

The Fronts



The backs



We are away until the first week of May, so any emails won't be answered, as our net access is pretty nearly non-existent. I will answer the emails as quickly as I can on our return.

The best laid plans

of mice and men - often go astray.

Sorry these photos didn't go up last night, but my littlies had an accident at the supermarket - they are both okay - but gave mummy the hugest fright ever. So we all had a very early night.



Catriona - a size 1 and size 2 - both with natural fibre inners



Dani - 2 size 2 - natural inners.

In the post today - Salwa



And this is what Shane, I and the lovely Tracy who gave up half her day off to help us with packing up the prizes. They are all packed and awaiting to go to their new homes, just waiting on emails of confirmation from the winners, so the parcels don't go walkabout to the wrong address. Those already confirmed we are taking with us to post whilst we are away. The rest will have to wait until we return in early May. As you can see, they covered my whole lounge room floor and then some.

Updates

Well something threw a spanner in the works on Tuesday, so I'm still working on New Customer items and they are a day late leaving. Those going today are

Kerry - and alas no photos - cause the ones Shane took were terrible - that will teach me - but I promise Kerry they are beautiful.

I have contacted everyone who was on my list - if I haven't heard back from you regards payment by Friday, you will have to wait until the next New Customer Stocking for your items. Or if you've emailed and not heard from me at all it means I haven't gotten your email, please resend it by Friday. If payment isn't received by Friday, you'll have to wait until we get back from our break away for your items to be posted. Shane and I will be away with no net access till the first week of May and we aren't taking work with us :)

Did you miss out on my new customer stocking, if so be sure to sign up to my newsletter at www.cherubskiss.com - details of the next stocking will only be made available to those on my newsletter list.

I still have some customs to also finish up and will be doing those first, before restocking the stores - mid May. But in the meantime a little birdie tells me that the Cloth Nappy Shop, has a handful of girly Auriels. I've also added my to do list in my side bar. The custom slots for March haven't been drawn yet - as you can see my list is a little long, so these slots will be drawn when I'm caught up a little.

Shane's managed to get some extended holidays, so during this time, we are re-vamping the sewing room/office to hopefully make it a bit more special to help keep the mojo going.

Also just a note on copyright and the use of photos. Please remember that the copyright on all photos and content of this blog, any of my other blogs, or stores, remains with me. Please just shoot me an email to ask if you'd like to use it or alternatively if you'd like to link to it, please just credit the source.

Oh and it appears that most prefer a set stocking time - 62% to 37% preferring random stockings. I'll probably continue to do a mixture, with most of my items auto-stocked so you can see exactly what time they go live.

Happy Easter

I hope those having an Easter break, take it easy on the roads, and have a lovely break with family and friends.

I'm still working behind the scenes on the New Customer Nappies, there are alot more than I first thought, so I'm still plugging away getting through them. I'll start to email again after the Easter break, as I know alot of people are away.

As it is I've been slowed down a little, due to the fact that yesterday morning bright and early I sewed through my finger :( I've never done that before in 25 plus years of sewing, and I honestly don't know how I did it. Anyways, there was blood and pain, and I had to have Shane bandage it up - it throbbed for a goodly portion of the day and is making it hard today to type, cut or sew. So perhaps I'll just have a day off today and play with the children. William is totally exhausted from his last day of term 1, and definitely needs some R&R.

Anyways here are some more New Customer Orders, that went out yesterday.



For Laura - Ballet Princess Auriel with white microfleece inner. Medium HoneyBoy! Pale Pink outer, and panda inner.



For Lisa - Small HoneyBoy! sea green outer - this fleece is so pattable, soft and silky. With a planes, trains and automobiles inner. And the size 1 Auriel is aqua minky with a toys panel.



For Nicole. 2 Medium HoneyBoy! - One mauve with funky flowers inner, and one salmon pink with roses inner.

New Customer Goodies

Well here are some of the goodies that the New Customers are getting. I hope the new owners like them. I apologise for the not the best photos, trying to take them and pack them in a hurry, so I'm ready to go when Shane gets back from doing some things with the children.



For Ann - Unisex Size 2 Auriel - Spring Green, white inner, and a Unisex Quick Dry HoneyBoy! Size medium - Lemon Lime with frogs.



For BP - Pink Nebula Size 2 Auriel, Aurora Size 2 Auriel



For Emma - Size 2 Black with Hot pink Inner and Fushcia Dragons and a size 1 Unisex Giraffe Auriel



For Trudy - Size 2 Auriels - Black Butterflys and Pink AIO with feature panel of Tillbrook Sprites.



This is a newborn pack, which is a collaboration from The Cloth Nappy Shop - the covers, and Bits for Bots - the prefolds, the rest from yours truly. They'll be going to the just about to be new mumma sometime this next week - the brief was bright and unisex, with a dragonfly t-shirt - which turned out sooo cute, I might have to make some more. So we have 2 Minkee Covers, 2 prefolds, a pair of babylegs, Size 00 t-shirt appliqued. Newborn Raphael. Size 1 hand dyed bamboo velour fitted Auriel. Size 1 Minkee Rainbow AIO.

Shane and I are playing hookey for the next few days, so I won't be here to answer emails. We aren't taking a computer with us at all. But I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I'll be emailing the next lot of new customers as well, so be ready to pay and your nappies will be on their way.

On a very sad note the Cherub's are sending throughts and prayers to Frances who knits for Possum Pouches Frances husband of 60 plus years passed away on Saturday. Please send your prayers to all the Possum Pouches family.

Email issues

Sometimes I hate computers :(
