The weekend that was

Not sure I am ready for this weekend to slip away just yet.....

not that anything particularly special happened over the last couple of days....

Nothing other than kids soccer,takeaway coffees, presents to sew for a school friends party.....

Waiting up for said party to end...way past mamma's bedtime!

Meeting together at church...

cars to wash , dishes to wash, cuppa teas to have.....

A little more sewing completed for my stash......

and now thinking about the week ahead.....oh where to start?

Rainy day sewing

A wet and miserable day here today...so what better to do than sew...right???

Well I did have some chores to complete first and some errands to run and spotlight to pop into first.

Hmmmm haven't been to spotlight in months and I have been twice in two days.....

But yesterday I discovered by accident they were having a 40% off all fabrics sale for two days.... so what was I to do but lead someone else astray with me...

I had some projects in mind which I need to get on and do . One being the 

Patchwork zipper pouch.

I have been making pouches for a while now  but this was my first patchwork one....and I am pretty pleased with the results....

Just in time for a friends birthday.

My Creative Space

This week's creative space is a carry on from last week......purses......

This week I dug out Pip's book and used the 

Cute-as-a-button-vintage  clutch pattern

Firstly I trialled it on some up cycled fabric from my stash just to make sure I got it right....

After being very happy with the turn out I cut some more of my ribbon rose material....

I have some more cut out and ready to go just as soon as I can get back into my space.
