recent train stitching

A recent trip to Melbourne was a good time with a needle and thread. But I am ashamed to admit I am a Flickr thief.

These are for Christmas pressies and a special birthday too - but lets keep that a secrete

Lovely day in the studio yesterday - stitching.

This is a little gift for a new born.

Using a heavy fabric found at an opshop and straight stitch.

Apologies for the quality of documentation.

Felt

I think I might have finally got over Day Light Saving and all the other things that have made me terribely tired.

There has been plently to post about - but simply no energy and the thought of being behind a lap top made me quite ill.

To get the ball rolling here are some images that my son made with felt on paper bags that I just simply adore.

Not just Frills

Today was my first official day in my new studio (pictures to be posted soon) - as well as yesterday my first day at my new job!!!

Loved the day in the studio - complete BLISS and JOY

Working mostly on frills thanks to the loving instructions of my good friend Ellen Coyle.

These frills are to finish off my quilts for A Little Lady Like Tinkling and Smearing show coming up at Craft Victoria.

Very happy with how they have turned out.

Oh Hen I am sorry this has taken so long - a few false starts - but here you go.
