    Applique Cards

    These are made from various upcycled fabric off-cuts and printed fabrics, layered with machine appliqué. The cards are perfect for any occasion, and can be very easily framed for the wall!

    Memory Bear

    Finally got around to making up a Memory Bear, using the uniform from my daughter’s old primary school. I had the idea to do this since she was in Year 6, last year, but it took me some time to find the right pattern. I was in the process of trying to work out a pattern when I came across the designs by Sew Lovely Keepsakes on Etsy. So, instead I opted to buy the gift pack pattern so that I could concentrate on making the bear. The memory bears, and other memory items are available on commission. Please do contact me if you would like to find out more…

    Amigurumi

    Experiment Notes: This one is knitted in DK held double on 3.75mm needles.Ears, tail are just single strand of DK.Fairly happy with the prototype, however, I might try doing again working flat. I worked in the round for this, but the jog in the stripes showed up (even with slipping the stitch).
