IWP Craft Fair

Last year's project

One less unfinished project in my cupboard!  I have to go to celebrate!  A year ago, while surfing on the net I found a great project to add to my patchwork collection.  This was twister quilts.  Here you are! Binded and labelled! Made by Javhlan Byamba.

On 8 November I will teach this wonderful quilt which looks so complicated but easy to make with special twisting tool.  If you want to make for Christmas you can bring your Christmas fabric collection. 



A pencil case, estojo

Schools started and they ask things that our children should have during the academic year.  Here is a pencil case that I made for my DD2.  Her name is emroidered on my super duper machine. 

Creche bags

In two weeks time I am going to visit my sister in Rome. Of course, I need some preparation for the visit, shopping - a big excuse. However, my sister asked me to make for her a year old daughter creche bag. She needed two of them and after two weeks of deciding what to make here are my results.

I used motives from Tone Finnanger Crafting Springtime Gifts.

Sorry about photos. Some times it is strange when I take photos by my mobile. You can have some neck exercises.

EMBELLISHED DRESS COLLAR

Embellised collars have been very trendy recently.  This what you can do with some sequences and beeds.  Firstly, mark where you would like to have sequences and beads.  Otherwise you might end up redoing it again like me.

This is one of the collars that I made this summer.  More photos later.



A new bag with an old frame

I made this bag couple of years ago and it has been my favourite bag. I think, bought fabric in France.

However, in one of my workshops a lady came with a big with same metal frame.  I asked her to give me some measurements and here is the result.
