Today's experiment in 3D applique - not 100% successful! The petals and leaves are all made separately and turned through for nice neat edges. They are gathered to give the realistic curls. Unfortunately there was no way I was going to be able to appl

Three more bags for the hospice. This fabric was one of the few plain pieces in Ann's stash so it was an ideal excuse to play with some Urban Threads designs. I've made 17 now altogether and I think it is time for a change!

A little shoulder purse. I couldn't resist adding this new little design from Urban threads to one of my own ITH purse designs. I must have been saving these fabrics just for this!

Zipped purse (my own) with vintage sewing design from Urban Threads. Just for fun! I made the second one using the test stitchout I had made of the design. It is a bit bigger but squarer - I had to adjust the purse design to fit!

I needed a quick birthday "card", and I haven't used a CD recycling design for a while so this is what I did.

Jelly roll project - this was a Moda "Wrens and Friends" jelly roll. I made the runner first and quilted it in the ditch after sewing the strips together. I made a second length for the placemats, but quilted as I went along. I cut that into slices to

We've just unearthed these porcelain dolls from our loft. My mother and I used to collect them in the 1990's. These three were all dressed by me. The one dressed in brown, I also made the doll from a kit. I don't know what I'm going to do with them

This week I've been making bags using fabric from Scottie's stash. (They are to sell in aid of the hospice where she received end of life care.) Most of the fabric is patterned so there were few opportunities for embroidery until I found this piece. The
