Some days

Some days 

I just want to make something...

So I did.

Love what you do

I find it hard not to be weighed down by all the sad things this week.

So I decided I would get back to what I  love.

 Making little things.... do what I can control.

While I was sitting at my table this came on the tellie.
It's the new "branding" for our public broadcaster, ABC.

I hope you can open it.

I was cheered up to the point of tears.

having fun

While I am still hard at work finishing things 

and doing the paperwork

for my exhibition

I have been having a  bit of fun making these

little jewely rolls.

 I love to travel and try not to take too much.

Don't we all?

But I always take something to dress up...

 So the plan is...

I wrap my special piece in this roll and put it in a shoe for protection!

In case you want to ask

these little darlings measure approximately

7 3/4" x 4"   or   19.5 x 10cm

Christmas Presents

I have been hard at work these last couple of weeks

making some gifts.

 I kept them under wraps until I had given them to my friends

These little sewing wraps are based on a "housewife".

That  was a little sewing kit my father had during the War

 for his mending and running repairs while he was in the Airforce.

Mine measure 3 3/4" x 11" (approximately) and are made from the remants of my quilts.
