Woodland Creatures

Today I have made a beautiful pencil case using Harris Tweed and a lovely printed cotton I bought whilst visiting Hereford.

I tend to collect pencils so I made this case nice and deep. It even has room for a little note book!

I cant wait to make more.

You can find this lovely pencil case in my Etsy shop HERE

Harris Tweed Dog Treat Pouches

A few days ago I made a pouch. Not really knowing what I might use it for.

Once it was made it dawned on me that these would be great for keeping doggy treats in.

They can be fastened to either the lead or a belt using the pretty ribbon.

 

 

I have popped the in my Etsy shop which you can visit my either clicking the big Etsy banner at the top of my blog or, by clicking HERE

Pretty card request

Today I have been busy in the craft room completing an order for a valued customer.

The instructions given to me were.... my sister is 70 next week.

Its great when I can play with my own imagination for a card.

This is what I created.

 

 

 

I decided against adding a 70.... not everyone is keen to advertise their age!

 

I also made another card using a different colour, just to see what it would look like.

The difference is very subtle and great if the recipient has a favourite colour.

The purple card has made it into the Etsy shop be sure to take a look HERE

Challenging times ahead

I like a challenge so decided to change the way I sell the items I make.

I now have an Etsy shop!

I am concentrating on being ready for Valentines day so need to get the thinking cap on and create some beautiful cards for people to enjoy sending.

I have also been very busy with the Harris Tweed I brought back from the Outer Hebrides.

As a beginner to sewing I am extremely proud of myself. Zips and fully lined!
