Testing

Just trying a test post from my new IPad!

FNSI

What a great Friday Night Sew In!  I worked on a kit I was lucky enough to win from Sew Prim Khris a while back, it is her own design called Sew Easily Charmed and stitches up so quickly using charm squares!  You can buy the pattern as a PDF from the link on her blog!

Another Year of Schnibbles

Yay life is getting back to normal, and I finally have something to show!!  This is my Full House Schnibbles, I used 2 charm packs of Full Moon Forest by Tula Pink, and Moda White.

Well I didn't get as much done for Friday Night Sew In as I wanted, but I am slowly getting there with this top.

 

Go here to check out what everyone else achieved!

Happy Halloween!!

International Teachers Day

Today my kids school celebrated International Teachers Day. Now I know this is supposed to be held earlier in the month but because that always falls in school holiday time we celebrate it on the last Friday in October. I made these for my kids teachers, I used the Gathered Clutch tutorial by Noodle Head (you can find it here!). I filled them with miniature chocolate bars, and from all accounts they were a hit :)

I had been wanting to try this tutorial for ages, but I hate gathering and I hate zips, but the effort was well worth the result!

My design wall today

This is what my design wall looks like today!  The blocks aren't sewn together yet, so please excuse the fact that some are overlapping slightly making them look a little odd in size.  Oh and please ignore the other blocks peeking out the bottom, there are currently 4 projects on my design wall overlapping each other.

This is a Moda Bakeshop pattern - you can find it here - it was designed by Julie Sebire of "Narioka" and the original used Hideaway by by Lauren and Jessi Jung, but mine uses Flora by the same fabric designers.

I think this range is too new for yardage to be released yet, so I will have to wait to do the borders.
