I made a cover for my lightbox. My bead tray sits on top of it so that is covered too.

Since photobucket altered their website a while ago I can't share any photos on here. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would be grateful.

I made a dress form pincushion.

I found a pair of jeans that I was never going to be able to fit into again so decided to make them into a bag instead. This is my first attempt and I am reasonably happy with it.

moments of sanity - great recycling - very good bag.
I had a kneeling pad that was falling to bits. I reused the filling/added some extra and sewed a new inner. I made two removable covers for the kneeling pad as it will get grubby on the floor. I have a mucky Mr F and a large dog.
