    As some of you know I love making frame purses :D and I have just found a great website that sells all the frames and bag making bits :D (uhandbag is great but I wanted to try other places too) I have just brought a gadget that helps ease the fabric into the glued up frame, brought yesterday and delivered today :j, I know I could use a flat screwdriver but not sure if OH would like his all glued up :rotfl:
    Ive put the link on the no chat sewing room if anyone want to check them out :D

    Now off to sew all my bits into strips for the scrappy quilt :D
    Getting myself sorted 1 day/1thing at a time :) and Love sewing :)

    Pootle that is lovely! I love the colours.

    Quick question, is a rolled hem foot a good investment? I mainly use cotton, can you roll hem cotton?

    Kaz - that cushion's great! *Contemplates going to Dunelm*

    Pixie - your bag is lovely. I am also a lover of spotty fabrics :D

    Pootle - well done. Now, that wasn't so hard, was it???*



    *That's a serious question, by the way... ;)

    Misspixie, I love the bag, love the fabric, what is it? It would be fab if a needle cord.
    Not had time to start the second cushion yet, maybe later.
    Pootleflump, I love your cushion, it would be fab in any other colour too :D
