    Sparkly cat tunic using Ottobre 1/2015 23. Peplum

    March 26, 2018 / 2 Comments

    Reversible sequin patches are in among little girls these days. We went hunting for nice tops among the high street shops but couldn't find anything in S's size. So I promised to make her some myself. The Ottobre 1/2015 23. Peplum was a good pattern to use as a base.

    Sew Over It Rosie skirt for the spring

    March 13, 2018 / 4 Comments

    I made a skirt version of the Sew Over It Rosie dress using a beautiful floral fabric. However, this make wasn't so successful. I ended up estimating my size wrong and then damaged the front of the skirt by ripping a thread with a sharp pin.

    Random triangle quilt

    March 12, 2018 / 7 Comments

    Our living room needed some brightening and I decided to make a random triangle quilt to replace the old and ratty wool blanket. I selected a bunch of black and white, gray and mustard yellow fabrics to suit our living room colours. This being only my second quilting project I am very happy with the outcome.
