My big sister is setting off on a cruise today. On Sunday she told me that she could do with something to put her travel documents in. I adapted the method of my A5 notebook design to make her this. It has the cover of an old A5 notebook inside. The desig

Cushion cover to use up some jelly roll strips left from a quilt. Each block was pieced, appliqued, backed, quilted and joined in the hoop. Next step will have to be to use this technique to make a whole quilt!

I should have been doing so many other things this afternoon, but I couldn't resist the temptation to play. This little zipped purse is the result. I seem to be in crazy patchwork mode at the moment! The fabrics are some of the bits I have left after sev

I had a brainwave at silly o'clock this morning and came up with these A5 notebook/diary covers. They are made in two hoopings, lined, no raw edges inside and with only the tiniest bit of hand or machine sewing to finish.

I had made a panel of English paper pieced patchwork, but it wasn't big enough to make a bag (I'd run out of the fabric.) So I decided to make one half of the bag in a denim fabric with a brown thread in it as well as the blue. The embroidery design is

This is my second sketch book/artist's companion. I'm not 100% chuffed with it but I think the friend I've made it for will like it. The pockets on the inside for pencils etc were done in the hoop. The design on the front is from Urban Threads. It has

I've been working on this one for ages. The outside is hand stitched (English paper pieced with 2cm hexagons.) The left hand panel (with the pockets) is made ITH and has spaces for a small notebook, pencils and other bits and pieces. The large pocket on

Daughter asked for fabric scissors for Christmas. I decided a case would complete the gift nicely. I first came up with the recycled denim version (The biggest I could fit in my hoop.) Then I found it fit my scissors perfectly, but not the ones I had boug

I had these two mugs printed with photographs of Herdwick sheep for my daughter. I printed the same pictures onto fabric and used that to make a pair of mugrugs. I knew she wouldn't approve of quilting over the pictures so I compromised by using a jigsaw

This little wreath was made by pushing tiny scraps of fabric into a polystyrene ring with a blunt pencil. (It is the leftovers from my placemats and table runner.)<br /><br /> I'm planning to have a bigger one on the go throughout 2017 to use the oddm

Table runner pieced and quilted in 4 sections and joined in the hoop. I added the back on the sewing machine. I didn't have quite enough left of the six fabrics from the placemats to do what I really wanted, but I am quite pleased with this.
