Craft container revamp
I tried to paint this wooden container ages ago and never liked how it turned out. It’s been holding my paint brushes and knitting needles. Not one to be fond of being reminded of crafty failures I thought I’d try something different. I gave it a couple of coats of Jo Sonja in white…..
I’ve been enlisted as chief photographer and editor for my boy’s latest Lego project. Sleepyhead needed a bed for this scene, so I made one out of polymer clay and a fabric scrap. The things we do for love.
Hope you’re having a great week, God bless.

Turn a top into an apron…
Skirt recon
Guess who else wants one now?
From dress to shorts…
Free sewing
We tend to be a hand – me – down magnet as a family which is mostly a good thing, but involves sorting through bags of clothes we often don’t want and that end up in the charity bin. Recently I saved a few items that were made with nice fabric but in a style I didn’t like or were too big for my girls. Cut out the seams etc. and ta – da! Free fabric.
So here is the first installment, a top made from 2 other tops. The crocheted flower was a gift, so, apart from the thread and the sweat of my brow the top was completely free.
