WOYWW...

 I've not had a lot of customers this week....I guess many are on their holidays....so I have been using my time well by sewing for the charity I support.


I loved making the rag doll so much that I decided to make another one....I try to make each one different but have enjoyed making each one.

Harry Johnson's mum, Sally, called in to collect the sewing I had ready for her this week and was really pleased with the quilt and the two rag dolls so, as she was having a stall at Vron Gate show last Saturday, she said she would take the quilt and one of the rag dolls there with her and keep the other rag doll for the Minsterley Show.



So I made her another quilt to take with the second rag doll to Minsterley show.  I am really loving dipping into the gifted fabrics and have already sorted out another batch of fabrics to make another quilt....I'm on a roll :-)


Please note my assistant isn't naked behind the quilt :-) :-)





Amongst the gifted fabrics were lots of ready cut squares ready to patchwork so I have been doing some random patchwork with them and plan to make 3 cushions with it....they are all really good quality fabrics so have been lovely to sew with.



Just so you know, I have had some sewing for my customers.  This is a lovely School Memory Bear for a school that I haven't made one for before and it brings my number of schools up to 39 now.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit today and will leave me a little message so I know you've called by and I will do my best to pay you a return visit as soon as I can.

WOYWW....

 Hello all.  It's been a different sort of week here for me....no bears at all so far.  Over the weekend I rather sadly caught a sickness bug from somewhere and was laid up all day Sunday so had to take the day off from customers on Monday so as no not spread the bugs....but by Monday I was feeling rather better, if but a little wobbly on my legs, so I spent the day chilling and sewing for pleasure in my sewing room and that's what I've got to show you today....and a little puzzle for fun.







I used some of the gorgeous fabric I was given to, use for charity to ,make this lovely quilt.  I really enjoyed making it and I will be printing a 10 x 10 square to sell squares at £2 each [to make £200] for The Harry Johnson Fund.



The other thing I'm sharing with you is this tool.  It's something my Dad made for me [I'm sure Jo has one too].  It's something I haven't used for a long time but I had such fun using it on the next thing I wanted to make.

What do you think it is and what do I use it for?

I will show and tell next week but please lets have a bit of  fun....have a guess in your comment.....no prize !!

Please don't give away the answer Jo.

That's all from me for this week.  Have fun folks and please avoid the bugs if you can.

Hugs,
