Treasure Purse

Just finished!
A little treasure purse in crazy patchwork to add a gorgeous touch of glamour  to your sewing basket.
I love the combination of the mother of pearl handles, the vintage heirloom buttons and the little seed pearls.  It makes you feel happy to use all the beautiful silks fabrics, threads and sequins.
The kit should be available in about a week - I couldn't wait to show you.

Byron Bay







A magical weekend was spent at the Byron Bay Lighthouse cottages with a group of stitching friends.
The weather was cold and blowing but the morning light on the sea was silvery with dramatic afternoon sunsets.  We saw some whales, a bride and a marine rescue - plenty of excitement.  Lots of good food, laughter and some stitching - what better way to spend a weekend!  I can highly recommend it.

Wonderful Spring Colours


There's lots of new shapes and colours to choose from in my range of sequins. The tiny 3mm. multi coloured cup sequins above, sit prettily on a square of hand dyed Colour Streams felt with silk ribbons in colours to match. They all work perfectly with the Mokuba flower trim. Yum!

                          
There are wonderful colours available in the hand dyed felts and felted fabrics, silk threads and Hanah ribbons.  My easy to do brooch kits combine all the elements of the felt, silk threads, sequins and wild fibres in a stylish way. A great way to begin stitching for spring.
