and more sewing



After making up the scrap bags for my shop I got to thinking 'what to do with the teeny bits?'. A bag - sewing hexagons always makes me happy. So I made the drawstring bag. What to use it for? A doll - seeing as I hadn't made one for ages. Since Christmas? I think it was. Cripes, that's an age ago. Was it really that long? This one has a linen face, rather than felt. She uses her bag as a bed when she's sleepy. Bless.
Anyway, she is also in the shop, if you're interested.

I have a week to get a quilt finished for my friend's daughter's birthday. I have started it, it's a coin quilt, so nice and simple. I can't post pics because she lurks about reading my blog, (don't you, Hannah?). I had probably get back to it, and stop sitting here avoiding the subject....

I went to your shop looking for the scrap bags but I didn't see them! I buy them all the time from etsy.

I love the bag and Miss. Liberty!

the dimples on her knees are the cutest...I hope I don't have them on mine, that wouldn't be cute.

Sent out your fabric today. Forgot to put in the hungry caterpillar. Next time. I think you'll love it.

Thanks for your kind words about Fe Dog.

Love it Katy. Seems like we're both on the dolly path at the mo'. Loving the new banner. Your scrappy bags are so fabulous. Your scrappy bag you made me ages ago is so fab and I love it. My niece uses it to keep her nintendo DS and always gets comments on it.
