Jug's On!

This happens... 

at certain times of the day a familiar call rings out 

across backyard fences

and from front yard verandas

"Jug's On"

the meaning is well known 

time to down tools, pull up a pew, kick back and have a quick catch-up 

before heading back into the day...

Spring has Sprung - Mulberries never make it inside.

Retail Therapy - Treasure Rescuing.

Barkcloth - Treasure Rescue destined for Fragment Bags.

Rain Rain Go Away - a good day to unpick.

House Hunting - trying to fit 23yrs of living in the same house into another is not going to be easy.

Making :: Liza Tops, Bunting & Quilts

The very best thing about conducting sewing workshops

is that I never know what projects my confident creative students

 have in mind

Bree is needing more Tops for her blossoming baby-belly

 and a slightly adjusted 

Liza Top 

was the perfect fit

Ruth only has the cutting into & washing of 

her first Rag Quilt 

for it to be finished

  and Sarah took her 

Liberty Bunting home on Saturday

 returning on Sunday

to nearly finish her first 

Rag Quilt

and the selection of patterns

 Sarahs Dad has been sending her

will have to wait 'til next time...

and next time will be on

Making :: Fragment Bags

it's been a while

it took ages to find

 an 'F' word 

to best describe my latest creations

Fragment Bags

 are combinations of vintage fabrics & needlepoints 

with soft leather belts as straps

a constrasting reverse side 

for some

making them two-bags-in-one

each fully lined 

 with a pocket

and magnetic closure

they're all unique

never to be repeated

however if your favourite one has SOLD

you might find one which is similar 

but-not-the-same

as I regularly up-date the Shop with more.

Fridays Sewing Snippets

They came

they sewed

and did all the other stuff
  women do in a confined space
when armed with sewing machines,
piles of fabric & a thirst for creativity 

they shared, laughed, ate

and sewed some more...

Ruths first Quilt

Inge brought her latest Jigsaw Jkt for show & tell

her next Jkt will be from this pattern using this bedspread
and the copied Lily Top is a firm favourite.

Rennae has a new favourite pattern and a growing fondness for 2-way stretch fabrics.

Next lot of Workshop dates are on the Website.
