Gifted

Here are a few things that I made as gifts that I never got around to blogging...

A teapot eyeglass pouch for my Mom. She really likes the cherry fabric :o)





A lemon potholder for a friend. This was the first time I did curly quilting and it was super fun but things got a bit crazy at times!





A scarf for Claire's friend. I didn't have any fleece so I used flannel for the backing. It's not often you'll see me use hot pink and purple!





And Claire's first fusible web applique project. I helped her a bit with the ironing and sewing but it was her first time using a real sewing machine. She had fun sewing the stars with my Elna. She was quite proud of her finished coaster and I was quite proud of her!




Enjoy your afternoon tea & quilted crafts :o)

Cotton Life no.4

Cotton Life no.4 includes two of my patterns: Winter Wonderland Candlemat and 'Tis the Season wall-hanging! There are photos for each step of every project so it very easy to follow even if you do not read Chinese. All measurements are in centimetres and includes full-size templates. Each issue includes 28-32 projects including accessories, clothing, housewares, bags, quilts and much more!





I was really happy with how both of these projects turned out :o) Here is a closer look at 'Tis the Season wall-hanging...







And a closer look at Winter Wonderland candlemat...







Cotton Life no.4 is now in my SHOP! Get yourself a copy and have fun sewing these and many more wonderful projects for next Christmas!
