Natalies Flower

My friend liked some flowers I have been making and wanted me to try and make a smaller one for her little girl Natalie.

Well here it is my first attempt at making a hair slide/clip.

 Doesn't Natalie look beautiful !!



Patchwork treasure chest

This is a work in progress. Its a small soft patchwork box all handmade by myself. Each panel is made seperately and then the box is assembled.

This is a unique one off item measuring approximately  5 " x 5.5". the lid is a styalised flower which is approx 8" x' 8"

This is a work in progress and I need to add a loop fastener and maybe some ''bun'' feet made from fabric balls, not exactly sure yet.

BJs Bag

Here is another bag I have been making for a friend of mine. Fortunately she allowed me to do things in my own sweet way so the process was not too restraining. sometimes making something for someone you know can be more restrictive because I tend to worry and faff more because I don't want to produce something they don't like.

Anyhow here are the photos and BJ my friend seems to like it very much :0) making me a happy bunny.

 

 

New Patchwork bag

I have really enjoyed making this latest patchwork bag. I was asked by a friend to come up with an idea for a bag for her mum. This is the final result based on the patchwork wallets that I make.

I have used both new and recycled fabrics ranging from old clothing and bedlinen to new patchwork fabrics from the shop. Decorations include old jewellery, buttons, beads and applique.

I am now on a mission to make another bag with a different design but using the same techniques..........so watch this space.

 

 

 

Coin purse/ phone pockets

I have once again been busy making purses. These are simple coin purses but they are just as easy to use as a mini make up bag for in your handbag or as phone pockets. I have used new and recycled fabrics some of which are vintage!!!

They fasten with velcro and each has a tiny bell attached for use as an anti theft device.

Woodland mushrooms

Mushrooms are sprouting up all over the garden. These are some of my latest creations.
