Made a Zip Up Pouch - first time I have tried doing tabs on the zip ends. This is a present for DGD.
I used a linen type fabric from my stash and LO Laura A scraps. The back is plain.

Floreenceem - love the bags 😃 congratulations on achieving the 50 :beer:and congrats on the new grandchild. We still waiting on the 1st :rotfl:

Kinski - love the colours on the button art


Tattycathy - thank you for the heads up on the quilting lessons

But I have a rule . Self imposed. If I'm doing craft stay away from the computer. I am a computer addict have been for 35 years. Gosh that sounds bad. Been programming since I tried the first ones out. 🙈

I only been crafting about 5 years it's a nice break from looking at screen

Susan, I am computer addict too, especially since I have got into Facebook lol.

I am crafting this week. I have booked a stall at a local craft fair this Sunday and I havent really made any new stock apart from those map shoes and a bag I finished yesterday.







I have brought my machine and some of my stash down stairs to see if I can make up some more although looking for something a bit quicker to do as this one took a while.

Wow impressive :j, I've got 5 of the horrible things aged between 5 years and 20 months, not met the youngest yet as he lives in America but they're coming over here to live next month and they'll be staying with us until they find somewhere of their own.

Hi everyone, Hope you all enjoyed a lovely Mother's Day. I had a very nice one with my mum in Lincs. My hubby and sons bought me a Sizzix Big Shot so no excuses now not to get crafting. They very kindly let me have it a day or two early so I could make my mum's Mother's Day card :-)
Florenceem; love the padded hangers and the zip pouch you have made. Many congrats on your baby news, (better get knitting he/she will be here before you know it!)
Susan42; I love the frames you have made.
Craftingmad; well done on 6 more cards, hope your new outlet is good for sales.
Loopychriss; love the idea of decluttering to reduce the stash pile, I will defo have to see if I can do the same.
Kinski; love your button art, it would make a lovely card topper, may have to pinch that idea!
rufusdog52; I love the bag with the little bird on, I like anything almost with birds on. I'm no good at sewing so think you have done fab!

I managed to complete another "fish n chip" jumper & hat so my target and my stash is going down nicely.

Keep up the good work!

rufusdog52 - lovely birdie bag. So much work there with the zips.

kinski , that button work was lovely. Spending 40 mins on it would have been very therapeutic.

Florenceem - congrats on first 50! Bet it won't be long until you have clocked up your century!

love2shop2: what is a "fish and chip" jumper? I apologise if I've missed an earlier explanation.


I've not done much this last wee while, with being away. I used all stash stuff to make a birthday card for my Grandson, who will be 6 in mid-April. Pinterest gave the idea. I used a little funky foam for the lego, but still have heaps left. I think I'll take most of it next week when the whole family (9 of us) go off to a cottage for a week. I'm sure the grandchildren will find it useful for something!

I thought I had just one more card to make for April, but my son proposed to his partner on Mother's Day and they went ring shopping today, so I have an engagement card to make
