vintage haberdashery

special delivery lovely lace

I was so excited to receive this parcel of crochet and lace motifs that I ordered from The Linen Garden.  I've got a feeling it won't be the last either, as there are so many beautiful things to buy in Vicky's haberdashery shop.
I'm starting work on some new pieces tomorrow using these lovely bits.

I've also been working on a beaded lace brooch, with a step by step guide on how to make it, which will be featured in a new sewing magazine in November. I was really pleased with the finished brooch, so I hope you like it too.


autumn flowers

I couldn't resist this piece of floral fabric, I love the autumnal colours. I'm not quite sure what I'm going to make with it yet, maybe a laundry bag or a cushion for this little chair?

sew easy


The other day I was given an old ice cream container with a note saying 'I hope these will come in useful' from a lovely lady who came to my open studio exhibition. To my delight when I opened the box, there was a selection of buttons and needles all on their original packaging. 
Here are a few of my favourites. Thank-you x




I'm away for a week or so.... off to the coast.....catch up when I get back.
