Patchwork with glue for a change. I began with a little china teapot, a pile of tiny scraps, a paintbrush and PVA glue. It took longer than I expected as I had to leave it to dry a few times and it was very messy!

How are the gifts coming along for the Cute Birthday Swap? One or two people have already shared pictures with me, but I haven't even started mine!

I've spent a couple of hours this afternoon reacquainting myself with my new sewing machine. (I've had it for five weeks but been on holiday for the last three.) I managed all the technical stuff, but I think I've left some common sense behind somew

I've been browsing through the design pages to find a design for my Secret Sister birthday gift. (I'll be sorting the names tomorrow, but I'm waiting for a couple of people's replies to my emails.) I've found some absolute crackers! I urge you all

For those who are afraid to try embroidery on wood. I've been experimenting some more today, so I took more pictures. The box I had was 80mm square and the balsa strips were 75mm so a join was needed. I hooped tearaway stabiliser and scribbled

New Machine update. I've had time to play properly today. I've been very busy over the last few days and only had time to stitch out a couple of the built in designs (unremarkable) and ruin one actual project (my fault entirely for assuming I didn't ne

I thought I would try another rag rug. This time the strips are about 15mm x 3mm. The backing is scrim which I put in an embroidery hoop and I used a cable needle as a proggy tool, working from the back. It is for the kitchen in my dolls house.

I was showing my big sister how to use the MC11000SE machine yesterday and she asked what people used the built in stitches for. I must admit that I have used very few. Today I had a look through those on my new MC15000 and discovered washing instructi

I've wanted to make a rag rug for ages. My made them (mostly before I was born) and I never learned how to do it. However, Jenny at my Stitching Bee inspired me to get on with it when she mentioned that fleece fabric was great for rug making.<br /><br />

Woo hoo. My new machine (Janome MC15000) has arrived. It has been in the house for 3 hours and is all put together and a couple of built in designs have been stitched out. All is well except my credit card balance!

My postman has just delivered two parcels from fellow Cuties! Both are full of inspiration so I'm really doing a happy dance here. The friendship here is just fantastic. If anyone reading this is just a lurker here, please think about taking a full pa

Jumble Sale Challenge. My daughter and I went to an old fashioned jumble sale on Saturday. We bought 6 pairs of denim jeans, a t-shirt (many sizes too big), a dress (about 40 years too young) and a pair of plain black 100% cotton full length curtains (
