Blogtoberfest Day #19 ~ Weekend Sewing

Over the weekend I attacked a few small sewing projects.

Some more list takers for upcoming markets;

A pair of shorts for Master T (they still need hemming)

And here's some sneak peaks at my next two RR blocks for the EB RR block swap I am doing that I finished off last week. I can't wait to get all my blocks back and turn them into a new quilt for Miss M's new big girl bed!

For those of you in Melbourne and Adelaide who read my blog - I would love some suggestions for some city markets to attend - I think its time to expand my little business into the city markets, which markets do you think would suit my goodies? Thanks : )

Blogtoberfest Day #11 & 12 ~ List takers & a snappy start

I missed a day yesterday, whoops. Quite a few times I sat at the computer and clicked into my blog but couldn't really think of anything crafty to write about, so instead went for a drive to Spotlight while hubby watched the kids to see if I could find a bargain.

I picked up some pretty quilters cottons and cotton drill fabrics on sale plus some calico to make a start on a new project. I have been wanting to make some little list takers for my market stall but have been having trouble finding the size lists I actually want. Finally found them yesterday, some long skinny ones.

Anyway, here's is what I came up with yesterday, a very rough first go, but a handy little wallet to have in your bag with a list pad, pen and pocket for receipts/cards.

I also used my new snap press for the first time, what a fantastic invention!

Hopefully these little wallets are a hit at the next few markets!

Don't forget to enter my giveaways I have going at the moment here and here : )
