Piece of left over fabric



After altering this lovely bridsmaids dress into a knee length dress I had enough fabric over to make a matching clutch bag . The bag has an inside pocket and magnetic snap closure.
Another satisified customer !

Lengthen a Dress

Quick and easy way to add length to a dress. As seen in picture 1., sew your strip of lace about one half ins.seam to the hem of the dress
This is what it looks like from the front of dress
Now add some ribbon over the joined seam

This is the ribbon stitched to the seam

All finished and ready to wear,this can be done on most dresses, just remember use a fabric that suits the fabric in your dress!

St.Patrick's Day



As St.Patrick's Day is nearly here I thought you might like to see my contribution to the "green".This is a lovely green velvet bag hand embossed with the Celtic Knot design. Ideal for jewellery,mobile,gift etc.











Another one of my projects is this pin cushion made in the same colour and design.
Love working with this velvet although it can be a struggle sometimes as it's inclined to slip.
Have lots of different colours ,Burgandy,Blue,Green,Chocolate Brown,and Purple.
I'll be making some cushion covers soon and I'll post them here.Bye for now.
