It is better to give....

than it is to receive!

I did some secret sewing recently,

and these are now living with my dear friend Mary.

A covered notebook....





And a wee pincushion,


inspired blatantly copied from what I saw @ 



I hope they bring as much pleasure as I had in 

making them....


Now, I need some information.....


Do any of my lovely readers know the name of this 

fabric....

Or where I might get a small piece?

I need about a 12" square to include in my

 Museum Medallion quilt!

I'm sure we could strike a deal!

And I would be eternally grateful.....

Christmas Gift Making

I have been busy getting some last minute gifts completed!

My sister decided she wanted a pyramid door stop...



Firstly, I made myself one as a prototype......



It's filled with rice and dried lavender!

And then I made a slightly larger one for Helen....


I lined this one to make it more sturdy!



Then, yesterday, I whipped up a journal cover for a friend using this tutorial...









And finally, this was 'adapted' from a printed hoop I saw in "Typo" recently!


The heart is a little wonky, naive perhaps.....



I may still add some blanket stitch around the letters and 


 running stitch around the outside edge?


This might, also, be my next giveaway....


Interested?


Happy days!
