WOYWW - 250



I missed you last week. Just got caught up in stuff, well actually the boiler. First no heating, that was fixed and then no water. All up and running now, but just threw a spanner in the works.

Well this is my desk this week, back to sewing...




I joined a quilting group last Tuesday for the first time (Pershore Patchers & Quilters), where we made a Needlecase based on a design by Barbara Pritchard (Sew Easy to Do). Barbara did a quick demo and then off we all went to produce our own little masterpiece. 


I so enjoyed making the first one, I went on a made a few more. I had a lovely evening with a very friendly bunch of ladies.

Feeling well in the zone by then, I thought I would have a go at making the Washday Peg Bag kit I had bought at the Craft Show in Malvern the other week. It went together like a dream. It even got a 'that's nice' from the husband! Take a look...


Gorgeous fabrics and easy to follow instructions, will definitely be making another one of these.
If you fancy having a go yourself I bought this from the lovely ladies at www.cross-patch.co.uk

And finally...


This arrived today from Clarity Stamps, to add to my Clarity stash. Whoooooo! Finally got round to spending my Christmas voucher, thanks Mum. Oh where to start, I can feel a Geli Plate project coming on.

Well that's it for this week, thanks for reading. Please leave a comment and I will hop on over to yours.

    Hi Theresa, oh yes I love your projects, gorgeous fabric and it's great to see simple domestic things like needle cases - might have prompted me to use up some scraps cause I'm always hunting for a needle (happily I've had my machine out this past year). Cheers and have a super week RobynO#38
