The Sewing Room (part 2)

shipr!!!95 - I was without crafting space last year so I know how you feel. Still not got my craft room straight.
Tea towel number 4 finished.
I bought these tea towels from Paperchased a few years ago. I had the idea of putting a stitchery on them and giving as presents as soon as I saw them in the sale. The tea towels are such lovely designs and quality.

Where is everyone?
Another lot finished.
I had a blouse in my stash - bought for 10p at a Jumble Sale - years ago. Cut it up to make the hanger covers - 6 buttons on it - used them to stop clothes slipping off the hangers.

I'm still here :hello:
Finished a small pram quilt and a matching bunny.
The bunny was from The Woodland Creatures Pattern by Simplicity which was free in a sewing mag last month.
Was only the second time I've followed a pattern and it can be quite confusing but I did it

Hi there - I'm wondering if anyone can help me out?
I'm looking to get a basic "how to" sewing guide, but what I'd really like is one in a ring binder so that I can add my own notes as I learn.
Does anyone know if such a thing exists? Or should I print out internet pages out and build my own?

sweaty betty - not heard of it - probably better to do your own.Decluttering Achieved - 2023 - 10,364 Decluttering - 2024 - 8,365 August - 0/45

Finished another tea towel.
Have a moral question - the family member that I am giving this to - is shall we say - more than a tad slap dash in their washing/housework. I want to treat all family members the same - ie - give them a stitchery tea towel. Am I being really mean - giving a lesser quality tea towel to the one who I know will mess it up? I plan to give them 2 tea towels instead of the one of top quality.
