Seeing spots


I borrowed this beautiful book from the library, and made this cute circular pincushion for my spot loving sister in law Stepf.

The fabric is from Japan, and so lovely and soft - thank you to Jacqui from Mee a Bee for sending me some of her fabric scraps when I ordered Abbey a gorgeous custom made kinder bag earlier in the year.

The book is beautiful, but I am glad I did not buy it, as there was a fault with the enclosed pattern, but luckily I sussed it out.

My little brother suggested we make him a MUCH bigger one, so he can use it as a bean bag. Imagine how much fabric I would need for that!

Special hand made Christmas Presents, part 3.


This is my last blog about all the special hand made Christmas presents we received.

These gorgeous dresses were made by Abbey and Zoe's Auntie Stepfie. Stepfie is new to sewing, but picking it up very quickly. I felt very special to be able to help her late last year with the dress lining. Since then Stepfie has been sewing up a storm, yay!
