I've been MIA for the last few days - perhaps some of you would like to see (part) of what Mike and I have been up to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IliXEY1G4N8

I've been trying to work out the engineering for an ITH purse with the zip in the top for a couple of years. This one is my most successful so far - done in two hoopings. The third picture is of the inside of the zip, and the fourth is of the whole pu

I needed a new peg bag - so an excuse for a play instead of "jobs".

Now she is finished, I think Melissa Mouse deserves a new thread! She now has no visible bits of stabiliser and none needed removing. Her tail is twisted knitting yarn because I thought a felt one would be too bulky and prevent her from sitting nicely.

I hope you have all noticed that Veronika is having a fantastic sale, but only for 24 hours! Look for the tab where DBC used to be! There is also a membership sale - too good an offer to miss.

For a while I've been wondering about making ITH animals in felt with blanket stitched edges to look as if they were handmade. I've had time to play a bit today. I hadn't considered the faf of picking the stabiliser our from the underside of each piece

This is a sensory quilt (AKA Fiddle quilt) for a dementia sufferer. I played around with some simple ITH blocks, adding bits and pieces as I went along. Those not visible include a crumpled crisp packet, a string of beads and a squeaker. I've used a vari

I got the pattern for this strange garment from a Japanese book. The first picture shows it as a skirt and the second, fastened at the bottom to create harem pants. Interesting, but I don't know how much wear it will get!

Does anyone make Fidget Quilts for dementia sufferers? How big should they be?

Do the larger sizes of Kam Snaps have proportionally longer spikes? I can't use the ones I have on the project I'm working on and it is frustrating!!

This has kept me busy for the last few days! I made 13 of the individual blocks as if they were intended to be pincushions. They are hand stitched together (mattress stitch.) Of course there had to be a purse to match. I have included a picture of the

UPDATE! Here is the bigger version. Unfortunately the new Kam Snaps which the postman brought today, are not long pronged so these popped off as soon as I unfastened it from round my wrist. Glad I only risked one! I wondered if it was possib

I'm planning a quilt using an ITH block so this is what I've been doodling today. I'm posting it in sewing because it doesn't matter what sort of block it is. The first picture is the basic block which I have made (it will be a pot holder - waste not

Tiny patchwork pincushions - I've been playing with my ITH quilt blocks and wondered what they would look like 100mm square. Here are two of them!
