Home making...

The makings of my sewing machine cover.

I love the texture from my new fabric all the way from Cambodia.

The finished product, I had so much fun creating.

Can you have too many throw rugs this time of year. I wanted to dress up an old fleece with felt and buttons.
My finished knitted and crocheted rug two years in the making.

My stitched birdcage cushion.

These are a few projects I have loved making, some quick and some ongoing. There is something so lovely about creating something new with your hands, something you cannot buy anywhere, something that makes you smile.

The joy of a project completed one afternoon...



Doilies from second hand shop stitched up to make me smile as I walk into our bedroom.

A finished project...





...feels good! I have a few on the go projects, actually ones that are left for a long while and I wonder if I'll ever get there! But these stitching cushions of the boys names and meanings were projects I really wanted to get done. In the process we got to talk about what their names mean and why we chose them. A treasure to pass down maybe.

There's a wedding soon...

Over many cups of tea, these were put together for my dear brother in law Brodie (he might see this) and my soon to be sister in law, gorgeous Keiko. I loved our whole day working bee we had
to get all the printing done and be together for a bit of craziness of wrestling and battles with the boys.
Can't wait for your wedding guys - finally!
