Live - Laugh - Love............

A rustic version of my cushion with the Live, Laugh, Love saying. I have used a soft rustic brick colour for the wording and border edge and the main fabric is a fleur de lis  with flowers and birds. I think it looks very vintage. 

stock for my hut at the "Whitstable Harbour Village" re-opening march 2014.........

I have started a new collection of cushions for the new season opening of my hut which re-open for weekends down in Whitstable harbour. I am hoping for some dry weekends to enable a cheerie start to the season!!!!!!

Kimmis butterfly pictures

A Christmas present for my friend who always appreciates something a bit girlie.... I used a picture of a a heart shape of pale pink roses then randomly covered with cut out 3d butterflies....Very feminine and delicate.

Then I had ago at another version, this time with a lavender heart background, then I used a smaller butterfly shape using a pearlescent indigo coloured paper? the result is quite striking.......

Christmas stocking for Poppy!............

Last year I made some Christmas sacks for Angela and her husband Keith who had got married in the September and wanted Mr on one and Mrs on the other with the year of their marriage as a keepsake. This year they have a new addition to their house, in the form of a little cock-a-doodle puppy called poppy. Angela asked if I could make a stocking with her name on it. I made the main stocking out of linen and lined it with a red spot, putting the same fabric on the toe. I cut a star out of red, glitter felt and embroidered her name on this, then finished off with some jingle bells........

A welcome to Isla.........

A commission for a small quilt for a baby girl who is due to be born in the next 2 weeks or so. The mum to be is the twin sister of Jaz and he wanted to get something special for his new niece when she arrives. Jaz left the design up to me so I have kept it simple with pinks and soft green floral fabric and used heart and rabbit designs in the plain squares, and Jaz wanted her name to be included, which is to be Isla.......just hope she doesn't change her mind. The small quilt, which could be used in the pram, cot or as a floor mat, is backed with a pretty spotted soft fleece.

Baby Daniel........

A request for the smart navy nautical theme for a new baby boy, born on the 6th November. with this design again, I always try to make them slightly different to the one I have done before, even if the same fabrics are requested, and I am still able to get them. In this instance the boat is a different shape to the previous ones I have made which makes it unique in its own small way.....

More little bunnies.........

Another version of the popular bunny design for a baby girl born on the 5th of November... welcome to Molly Phoebe. Each time I make this cushion I try to give it a different look so they are all unique in their own way.
