Forget-me-not wallet
I made this for a mummy of an angel - a group I'm in are doing secret Santa!
I've put a rainbow on the back and white and pink feathers in each pocket, as symbols of her little one.

It has card pockets and money slots, as well as a coin zip on the back (though the coin purse bit is really dinky!!)
I'm going to be making one in similar fabric, with turquoise background, for myself too!

Craft rolls!
Made another craft roll and also bought the stuff to 'stuff' them with!
First one I made with a pinstripe outside and grey pockets
Very fun! Am only doing 2 but will take orders!
Pretty aprons
Made these 2 little beauties this morning...

I ADORE jumbo ricrac!!
Tea towel holder and heirloom stitching around the pocket
How on earth do you 'model' an apron in your PJs?!
Not much better!

Chalkboard, oilcloth and buckets!
Little oilcloth washbag!
Travel chalkboards!
Chalkboard gift tags - so easy to write on and reuse!
Storage buckets - with and without handles, round and square!

More busy-ness for business!
Little hand-sewn cuties - stocking fillers!
Drawstring Christmas bags
And I LOVE this! An oilcloth, padded, lined tote - so amazing!
Just needs a good iron (carefully!)
I think it's just beautiful!
Thanks to Poppyseed fabrics for a great tutorial - I was able to adapt it for the oilcloth and make the pattern bigger too!

Little and large!
Made 11 bags today - 7 biggies and 4 small ones. Got 3 more small ones to do. The pile of completed stuff is growing nicely! Just 2 weeks until my first craft fair and it's looking good, I think!
Did manage to cock up slightly by cutting the fabrics on my lap and cutting straight through my pyjama drawstring and decapitating my tape measure! Oops!
The small ones are reversible too!
The big ones are unlined - more like handy shopping bags!
Also made a book bag yesterday, which I was really pleased with as I've lost the pattern for it so did it from looking at the one I made myself years ago!Did manage to cock up slightly by cutting the fabrics on my lap and cutting straight through my pyjama drawstring and decapitating my tape measure! Oops!

Handbags and other stuff...
More bits and bobs - I adore these cute handbags!
Finally, made a little craft roll that fits a pad of paper as well as some crayons and colouring pencils!
And these little bow pouches are so fab - just the right size for a Kindle or E-reader!
