A FEW MAKES...

I seem to be the pump bag queen at the moment, its strange how things seem to come in waves isn't it, at the end of last year it was cushions that were the order of the day, but January seems to be the month of the pump bag...


This little pile were last weeks orders from the local cafe I supply...

Did you notice the heart picture in the background ?, I was so pleased with the one I made for Uncle Bob using cut out maps that I thought I would have another go, not sure whether to put this in the cafe or on Folksy to sell, although it does look rather nice sat on my dresser and I might just keep it for myself....



I had another birthday gift to make last week, this time for my older sister Pauline, she had told me about the Kindle she had bought and how the covers for them were out of stock, I remembered seeing a tutorial for a Kindle cover here at Junie Moon so I gave it a go and am really pleased with the result, it even has a little pocket on the back to store the charging cord...



We have had some really miserable weather the last few days, which makes me look forward to the hopefully fairer weather of spring, all that thinking of Spring saw me dig out some nice spring like floral fabrics and run up a few little bags to sell in the cafe.... so pretty....

  2. Busy, again! I love your little pump bags and I've been meaning to ask for ages - what are they for? I guess gym shoes, is this something kids have to carry to school everyday? Our gym kits go into school at the start of term and stay until the end of term (I know, best not to think about how grubby they get).
    The kindle case is very pretty and I bet your sister will love it. Juliex
