Another quickie today just to help me work through some of the pics piling up in my "must blog about" folder.
It's a really simple pincushion that my former SU mummy Jules showed me how to make.
I used the Timeless Portrait Fabric from Stampin' Up! and a nice big button in Cherry Cobbler.
Goodness only knows why I keep making pincushions - I have several now!
Another fabric project today, using the Timeless Portrait fabric from Stampin' Up!
My BlackBerry case was getting a little battered, so I decided to make myself a new one.
The longest and most difficult part was deciding which of the five ranges of Stampin' Up! fabric to use!
I settled on Timeless Portrait and to keep things simple I did a bit of quilting in purple thread and a random zigzag stitch.
I feel another tutorial coming on! The case is lined with a plain black fabric and I used some batting in the middle to give it a bit of padding (I am always dropping my phone).
Hopefully you cansee the stitching. And a pueple button!
I'm going to make a confession now and admit that this one was too small for my BlackBerry. I am not very good at measuring accurately! But no fear, I will add it to our next craft stall and hopefully sell it as an iPod pouch.
Also, I REALLY want a decent sewing machine so am trying to save some pennies. Please noone show me pretty fabrics or cute buttons or my money box will be empty again!
Another idea for your new Stampin' Up! fabric today.
These little boxes are super easy to make and are great gifts (so if you're expecting a present off me this Christmas look away now!).
Basically, you cut two hexagons of fabric, sandwich a hexagon of pelmet Vilene in the middle, fold up the corners, et voila!
Heres a Timeless Portrait one. It works great as a little sewing basket on my desk.
And this is the Candy Cane Christmas fabric. A few of these on the coffee table filled with choccies will be just right!
I may sort out a tutorial for these soon!
