After reading about drcindyl's experience with her credit card, I don't think it would hurt any of us to review our on-line purchasing habits. Firstly we should check that any site we are buying from has a URL beginning https. The s is for secure. It

Two more lavender sachets. These have thinner and therefore better behaved ribbon than the heart shaped one! The central section is a fancy fill on net to let the smell out. I'm afraid the eyes on the owl look a bit bloodshot as the purple bobbin thread

This felt lavender sachet was an idea I had in my head whilst I was away for a couple of weeks. (Bet you didn't notice!) The central heart shape is a lacy fill stitched on net without stabiliser. (Although you can see I didn't quite get it all out befor

This lap blanket began as a pile of granny squares I had made for something else (which didn't quite work out how I wanted it.) By the time I had decided not to use up the squares, I had started to crochet a square with the leftover yarn (for no particul

Another fidget quilt for dementia patients. This one has even more different textures and hidden lumpy bits than the first one. The lime green zip is actually functional (to a pocket.)

Finished at last! One jelly roll (Fabric Freedom Spice Trail) plus some plain cream and lots of old sheeting (instead of stabiliser.) 38 blocks, pieces, quilted and backed ITH and then ladder stitched together by hand. My intention was that this would li

I've learned a new acronym today. SEX (Stash Enhancement Xperience) Well, fabric shopping can be quite sexy!

This is an idea I've been doodling today. A friend asked me to design a banner for her grand-daughter's christening and I came up with a simple flower unit for each letter, suggesting they were fixed to a green ribbon - like a daisy chain. Then I wonder

I've just seen an article from an English newspaper which begins: " A COUPLE from St Austell who added popular logos such as Hello Kitty and Fireman Sam onto goods they were selling through their eBay shop have been ordered to pay up for illegally us

This my current work in progress. To be honest I'm not sure I like it. (I've had the jelly roll for about three years and I love the colours and most of the fabrics, but there are a few really random ones in it. Also, they are not all cut very straight.

On Saturday morning I awoke to find a message from Bev (in Texas) with a link to this design which she thought I would like. I followed the link (to Australia) and bought the design. The cushion was made (in England) by lunchtime. Isn't the internet gre

Having only really done my own ITH designs, I wasn't aware of methods used by other digitisers. A friend asked me to help her with a design she had bought. According to the instructions, it was necessary to print a pattern and cut all fabric pieces to si

My J-club ladies will soon be asking for things to make for Christmas so I doodled a few ideas while I was on holiday. This little chap takes about 3 minutes to stitch and a lot longer to cut out, but I rather like him. I tried to make a moulded chocolate

I took some random hexagons on holiday to stitch together by hand. (English Paper Piecing.) I thought hand stitching might not stand up well to use in a bag, so I've now machined them together (and to a sort of compressed foam backing) using a fancy stit

Update - she has now had a facelift and a hat lowering. There is a bit more hat to roll back now which isn't quite so easy, but now her hair shows better! For the asleep picture I took the hat right back. This is a double sided pocket doll I ha
