Molly Dolly from Mollie Makes

This month’s Mollie Makes magazine has a lovely little doll pattern in it – which I just couldn’t resist making. And, having made it can see the potential for a few adaptations!

Bags Galore!

Here we are again – I just couldn’t resist it – another bag!

I found some a scrap of lovely rust coloured velvet fabric and some contrasting prints and hey presto

Bright and Cheery Bag for theSummer

What else is there to do on a wet Wednesday afternoon but create a new bag for the summer.

It is made from black cotton velvet and a mixture of bright and cheery fabrics.

Knitted Bunting for the Goldern Jubilee

To celebrate the Diamond Jubilee I have have been knitting red, white and blue triangles to make bunting. And to hang all the triangles together I have used string and tiny pegs. So Easy!

Jean’s Bag

Just look at thia fab bag that my friend Jean has made. Very stylish!

Project Quillow Complete!

I have finally finished my heart quilt and made it into a quillow. This is what it looks like in it’s entirety.

And, this is what it looks like all tucked up into a cushion

Easter Hens

I decided to try out some hens for Easter and here is the result. Initially, I used the log cabin patchwork effect, which looks good but is fiddly, so I then progressed onto using triangles of fabric stitched together, which look rather effective. Great to use as a pin cushion!

More Purses!

I bought some coloured purse clasps from Hong Kong and created these little purses. I have really enjoyed mixing and matching the fabrics to create a really colourful and fun effect.

Purses

I have been fiddling with these little pyramid purses for months and finally, I think have got it right! They are quite time consuming to make but look rather good when completed.

Birthday Bunting

Sewing and crafting is catching on. This is bunting given to me by a friend for my birthday. I was very proud to display it on my birthday and it will be coming out for years to come!
