    damni i started it i think around sep/oct time ,maybe. i had two on the go. but i finished the smaller one quite quickly in comparison. i'll get it done by next week i'm sure.

    23rd spiral, thankyou. i'm gonnna try and do some in a bit. but for some reason today i've woken up more tired than i went to bed, so i need to not fall alseep while i'm sewing it. as it is really soft ans snuggly.,lol.

    hiya, thanks for asking nearly done. hopefully about another 1 maybe 2 hours at a push and it will be done. but if i work fast should be done faster. My son was bit poorly fri so had a sleep for an hour in the afternoon. amazing how much i got done then.

    i'll post a pic as soon as it done and i get a chance.

    Last minute stocking fillers. I'd like some quick ideas for lavender bags. Shapes and filling, how much do you add to each bag; do you use wading too?

    ive made some scollop squares using my cuttlebug and a sizzix bigz die.

    i cut fabric and adhesive interlining and didnt use wadding.

    i used a plastic top off a pump type toothpaste tube as a measure and it put in two scoops of lavender.

    i pre sewed three sides and sewed in a hanging loop so once i put the lavender in i just had to sew up the last side.

    i did all my sewing on the right side as by using the adhesive interlining the fabric should not fray.

    they are on my blog.
  • Merry christmas everyone! just thought Id share my sock santa, Iv not made monkeys since I began sewing so am a bit out of practice.. but i entered him into a comp and won!

    Also wanted to say to the person who has had their kitchen done Iv just had mine done too and also have naked walls so i may pinch your idea of framing fabric! x

    Hi everyone,

    I've made another bag based on the Buttercup bag pattern, with a few adjustments. Details on my blog as usual.
