Stitching and Sewing!

I have an update on Travel Memories which is coming along quite nicely:


Travel Memories 11.02.15
I have added a few stitches to the table runner but not enough for a photo. If I can stick to my plan and don't get carried away on Travel memories then I would like the table runner to be my focus piece for at least the next couple of weeks,

Saturday, I had a day of cutting pretty fabrics ready to be turned into better things...Tuesday evening I made both of these carrier bag holders.



One is for a friend and the other for my Aunty. I made these using this fabulous pattern.

I need to get around to those two travel duffle bags that I've been meaning to make since August. Luckily the people who asked for them aren't in a rush and understand that I've been busy with university.

Hope you all have a good week and welcome to my new followers :)

      Thank you :) They're very handy, keep carrier bags at hand while providing decoration to your kitchen.

      Definitely take a look, they are so quick to make. However there is about a 1cm of bulk that my sewing machine hates (it is a basic sewing machine and I don't have a walking foot yet).
