Today's work
Here's what I've been working on today. I thought I'd try to make a needle case but I've been struggling with the best method. It's really important to me that I am pleased with what I create. I would only sell something that I would be happy to buy myself. So the practice goes on and I will let you know when I created a system that I'm happy with! Got to be proud of my work. The top picture is of a butterfly broach I also made today. I had called in to hobby craft this morning and couldn't resist the Tilda fabrics! Fatal going in there haha!

Stitched broach
I love the colours of this one couldn't resist posting! I enjoyed using a bit of canvas for the word. It went through my typewriter easily.

More free motion pins / broaches
This is so much fun! I can hardly keep up with the ideas that keep coming to me. These are what I have made today. It would have been more but I have a bad back so I am pacing myself.

Free motion work
Love, love, love free motion embroidery! I am getting to now my Janome machine and all its little ways, and we are getting along quite well. It really has helped to inspire me. Bit of a neck ache tonight though. Think I've been bent over the machine for too long!

Free motion fun!
I've been practicing with my new (to me) Janome sewing machine and have loved making these little pieces. Think they will become broaches, I just need to sew a pin on the back. I'm finding that free motion embroidery is really a case of practise, practise and more practise! Loving the results now though!

Cards- the revolution!
I've never much been interested in making cards, but I've come to realise they are just little pieces of art! Here are a few that I have LOVED making the last few days. Think I might see if they sell, although it will be hard to say goodbye!
