Crazy Patchwork Bag

This was another exercise in using small scraps of left over fabric. I found coordinating, deep pink, outer fabrics and added little pieces of those to the centre panel to pull the design together. On the reverse is a hand quilted design, whilst on the front it has been simply ditch quilted. The shoulder bag is approximately 17″ Sq. Internally I lined it with a plain cream cotton and added a multi pocket, one with a zip as well. There is a small loop with a magnetic clasp fastener and decorative buttons to finish off. Another unique patchwork creation!

Bob, who’s Bob?

I sketched this picture one day and thought it would make a lovely Handmade Cushion Cover Design. So I rifled about in my patchwork cotton fabrics until I found just the colours and patterns I was looking for. I hand appliquéd all the pieces to the centre panel then added some old buttons for eyes and air bubble effects. Then Hand stitched echo quilting on the centre panel and ditched quilted the patchwork seams.

I was really please with the finished decorative designed cushion cover!

Frog ‘Doorstop Dumpy’

I have been designing and creating patterns for what I have called my ‘Doorstop Dumpies’. Sizeable and weighty little decorative characters for a practical purpose. Each and everyone – UNIQUE!

Meet my green, spotty, cotton fabric, frog ‘Doorstop Dumpy’ creation – Fredrick. Decorated with old buttons for eyes and around his waist trim, this rather handsome chap, dressed to the nines, has collar and velvet bow tie. He’s quite literally dressed to impress as he holds open the door for you whilst greeting you with a red ribbon rose!
