Sew special...
I have probably got one or two sewing machines too many to be healthy.. but I do rather enjoy an evening in my studio with bolts of fabrics, charity shop finds, a scetch book, scissors and a sewing machine and overlocker. I aim for a good finish on anything I create.. and always have more ideas brewing than there is time to make up. Here are a few things I have loved making...
This three section shoulder bag is generous and lovely whatever material I use.. here I made it from my fave Laura Ashley curtains .. as they are sadly surplus to requirement in our croft where our bedroom windows are velux roof lights.
This key pouch was a request from a teacher who carries too many keys and was fed up of them wearing holes in his jacket pocket linings. I based this on a memory of a leather version my Grandpa had.
