Favourite Autumn Reds And Browns


This is a headband-sash I made for a friend lately.




I was itching to make something in a riot of fall reds and russets and caramels 






and this was the outcome.



I was pretty happy with it




and it was well received -accompanied by a rusted orange lavender loveheart brooch, in a girly cotton pouch.

New Reversible Fabric Box with Heart


I've recently discovered that you can never have too many of these little fabric boxes.




I use them to store make-up, supplies, socks, toys, and just about anything that needs storing really.







This one is reversible -as most of my fabric boxes are.




The heart is one of my lavender lovehearts and it's a detachable brooch that I just couldn't resist attaching to it.




   I like hearts regardless of whether it's Valentine's Day or not, so it's going to be sitting on my desk even after the 14th.

New Baby Pink Organza Flower


Here's a new little organza flower brooch in the very pale, very delicate pink organza I've rediscovered lately.




This one has an irridescent centre of translucent, shimmering hearts
-one of my absolute favourite sequins ever.




And leaves made out of a liberty-like floral cotton with dainty pink flowers and a sprinkling of green leaves.




Yes, a favourite also, from my vintage stash.
I decided to opt for the black stitching for some contrast and I'm quite happy with the outcome.





Here's a picture of the whole brooch from the front




and from the back.





Don't forget to enter January's Give-Away for a chance to win a similar but much larger Pale Pink Organza Flower.

My Creative Space - Wristlet Pouches

Amongst a million other things that seem to be on my worktable, I finally made my first ever pouches!


They've been on my list of things to do for ever....




So it was fortuitous that someone ordered one and of course I got carried away and got to make more.



Maybe you noticed the heart stolen from the Lavender-filled Heart Brooch.



They were lots of fun to make and I'll definately be making more when this Christmas rush is over and I have the time to breathe...




The litttle handles were actualy cut up from hanles I had made for the kid's Duck Bags a while ago.



This one is mine and as large as a pencil case but I use it for the little bag I carry around when I don't want to carry a bag. I put my keys, purse and mobile in it and I'm good to go. The handle makes it extremely practical as it dangles on your wrist and you have free hands!
 I've also made a smaller one I use as a mini make-up case in my bag.



And this one is the same size made to the specifications of my sister who -I'm happy to say- adored them on sight.....
