Market


This week I have been sewing a few more bits ready for market on Saturday. This time I've added some potholders, a couple more bibs and another table runner.
Have a good weekend everyone and stay safe.
Cheers....Jane.

Quilters Diary 2011

I received a lovely diary as a gift from a friend but had already purchased this one.

It has lots of inspiration inside...

So I got busy & used some of my favourite fabric scraps, machine embroidery & crochet to create a cover for my diary, which I've decided to use as a journal for all things crafty.

Sweet stitching....Jane.

Birdies


Firstly...Happy New Year....I hope 2011 brings you health and all things that make you happy!!



On the way home from Launceston last week this cage caught my eye....perfect for a couple of little birds.

Lisa suggested I make these as they are quick and easy to do....the pattern is in Homespun No. 87. I think they should be quite cosy in their little cage with a pincushion nest to rest on at night!
Sweet stitching all....Jane.

Colourful Friday - Christmas

Red is a dominant favourite colour of mine and it shines through at Christmas!

The Tilda hearts I made last Christmas, while the teddies are dusted off to be displayed every year.

I think these fellows are singing 'I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas'............

Merry Christmas all and a big thank you to Robyn for hosting Colourful Fridays....it's been a rainbow of a journey!
Cheers....Jane.

Colourful Friday - Teal

Gosh this has been a blue/green adventure.....this is a box lid.

A piece of fabric that seems to be telling me it's bag material....


and I should have posted the other pics of the crocheted square...they all looked a different shade of blue!!
For some more teal visit Robyn @ Daisy Quilts.
Happy Colourful Friday...Jane.

Colourful Friday - Silver

A few sewing notions & a charm bracelet.

A bit of snapping in Miss J's room.

This book mark also belongs to Miss J.

I think this one is my favourite....it used to be a pot-pourri jar....now it's home to some shells. For some more Friday colour visit Bev @ Kainga.
Happy Colourful Friday....Jane.

Weekend Sewing

On the weekend I did a little bit more sewing to add to my 'Market Day' box.

Hard to tell in pic but the coasters are bigger than normal.

Now inside as it's raining on & off today....a couple of table runners.


It's always a bit hit & miss sewing for markets, but I figure if I sew what I like I can use it if I don't sell it!
Sweet stitching all...Jane.
