Finally getting busy!

Yes, I'm finally getting busy sewing again...Slowly though! My hubby's aunt from Scotland wanted a couple of bags sent over along with some of my ballet slippers, so she has the choice of these bags. Drawstring, quilted ones as I just love them at the moment!
I've just received the butterflys in pink so I'll be making myself another bag with that lovely fabric soon...


I just love this pears print from Alexander Henry.


And Joyce is madly into cupcakes, so I thought she'd love this one above!



I've also been busy making a few more raggy runners. They're selling really well at the moment, and I can't get them made quick enough! Another one (Pretty pinks!) is in the wash now getting ready for Ebay tonight.



Mary from Sew Hot Mitmot received her parcel I sent her as part of the Polka dot swap. Here is a photo of what I included... A quilted patchwork drawstring bag, a quilted doorstop, a handbag notebook, a bookmark, and some sweet polkadot fabrics. She has posted pic's of the doorstop in use so that was lovely to see!
Best wishes,
Jenelle

  6. I just love all your work and especially the "rose" fabrics.

    I too have gone "cupcake" mad!! I have a couple of table runners on the go and got a set of trays and cups to complete the "image."
