So you’ve just started on your sewing journey and you’re looking at all those glorious tutorials online, but they’re abbreviating lots of things and they’re going on about things you’ve never even heard; you have no clue what they mean! Don’t be disheartened. You’ll eventually get to know the terminology without having to look it…
I love making Christmas stockings, but seriously, how many times can you change them without ending up with a hoard? I’m making us new ones this year and plan to keep them for a few years so figured I’d write up a tutorial. They’re really easy to make and look beautiful! What You’ll Need 1…
Last year I made a few folded star ornaments, but it was fairly late in the year and I simply ran out of time to create a blog post for them. This year, I plan to release a Cathedral Window ornament tutorial and have finally *made* time to document the making of the folded star…
We had a Springer Spaniel for 14 years and he loved all of his toys (until someone touched them, then he wasn’t interested). Suffice to say, he had a lot! This year I’ve decided I’m going to create a few gift bundles for the furbabies in the family. We currently have two cats, however, plenty…
I made a couple of these last year for our furbabies, but as with absolutely everything I made last year, I had no time to create a tutorial for them. I’m being so, so good with time management this year and trying to get everything written up in advance. That way I can sit and…
I’ve been wanting to find time to make these little cat kickers for the furbabies for a while, but had very little time. Frustratingly, they literally took 10 minutes! I could have whipped them up a long time ago. Got there in the end! What You’ll Need 1 Fat Quarter (or a scrap measuring at…
Following on from the no-sew Christmas wreath, I wanted to create something with a little height to add to the centre of the Christmas table, cue the no-sew Christmas tree. Lots of folding and pinning in this one, so I’d advise you to use a thimble! What You’ll Need Fabric (I used Stuart Hillard’s Merry…
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! I’m normally pretty much sorted with Christmas shopping by now, or at least I used to be. I’ve found less and less time each year as we get busier and busier. Covid meant time off work for most, but for us we saw a spike in orders…
Fantastically quick to sew, a set of these would make a lovely Christmas gift! Seriously, we’re talking a full set in less than an hour! I used different fabrics on the front and back and they can be used either way around. The size is based on the mats fitting our table either side of…
Last year I made a few folded star ornaments and a folded star wreath. The idea came as I’d been working on a folded star cushion; that being said, if you google it, I’m sure it’s already been done! That’s why I don’t tend to google things now! I see someone has already produced something…
