I do a lot of hand sewing in the evenings - mostly EPP. If I had £5 for every time I had to dismantle the sofa to find my scissors I would be a rich woman! Hopefully, this will help. It is a cushion filled with polystyrene beads, topped with a thin bo

This is what has been keeping me busy for the last few days. I began with a Tilda charm pack which I had had for ages and some Bomull from Ikea. I made up a piece of patchwork with alternate squares, big enough to go round me with a bit extra . I layer

Quilting with rulers. I'm hopeless at free motion quilting so I thought I'd try rulers. They came with instructions to make a case to keep them in which was a sampler of the templates. I'm not sure if I'll ever be happy with my efforts! For my next

My sister has asked me for some applique sheep designs to use with tweed. These are my first attempt. I didn't have any tweed for the faces so I needle felted some real fleece to some felt and used that. It does give it a 3D look which I like. I used twi

This is a cushion made from the test stichouts of the latest design I have uploaded to Engineered in Stitches. (Art Deco Fan.) The applique block is joined in the hoop with the option to quilt as you go.

A friend asked me to digitise a circular quilt label for her. It had fairly conventional wording which was in rows. (She stitched the design.) Then I had a request for a quilt label for a lady I'd made one for before. She gave me the wording she wanted w

I'm having a change - this is the first block in the SweetPea Mystery-Medallion-Quilt. I've heard a lot of good things about their designs so I had to try one. It has come out very nicely. (I did take the liberty of adding some extra lines of stitching

A birthday card for a sheep owner. Stitched on felt with a CD inside. The sheep was digitised to stitch on card and I wanted to beef it up a bit so I stitched the outline with two shades of grey thread in the needle together. The darker one is threaded th

My first make of 2018. This little quiltlet was made entirely in the hoop with no extra sewing. Once I got my head round the engineering, the rest was easy! I've added a picture of the back for KIm. There is a tiny overlap across the middle, fixed wit

I fiddled and tweaked the bottle guarding elf until I'm happy with the design. In England we have a term "Chief cook and bottle washer" - I have played on this for his shirt.
