The Sewing Room

rosalie-lavender

I have spent the last three days sewing as it is half term. I am making progress on a number of dressmaking items but the room is now a tip. It is a good job my daughter doesn't have her singing lesson in the holidays or I would be playing hunt the piano now!

Great to see what everyone has been making. I have been busy sewing. Just finished a large sewing case/book and a cutlery roll with a napkin pocket to put in the car. We often go for days out and thought it would be nice to keep it in there for our picnics.

Evening all
Have had a read through all your posts you have all been busy. Hope you are all well.

HMO your quilt is beautiful and the colours are lovely. Also liked your heart and dog lavender sachets.a

Chocolateislife well done on your table runner black and white is a favourite of mine

Haven't done any sewing as I've been crocheting a baby blanket. Did cut out a dolls dress this afternoon for a doll I brought in a charity shop last year especially to redress.

Take care

I wonder how many of those hearts sell t that price. I'm always astonished at the prices charged in shops. Before Christmas I made lots of lavender and Christmas spice bags in the shape of penguins, robins, birds etc. I booked 3 craft stalls and tried to sell them for £2.50 each and failed totally. Now I have 150 of them looking for home and wondering what to do with them.

winniepooh Loving your cushions
dxm They are just gorgeous, can't believe they didn't sell.

Love to see the pics of all your projects

Does anybody use rose petals in their hearts instead of lavender, if so could you tell me where you buy them from? Opps! Sorry,* Please*:o

Have a good day!

You could open an etsy or folksy shop and list the less christmassy ones, hold on to those till around Nov then list those.
