A new discovery...for me :)

I'm probably years behind the times, but I have just found something to make patchwork, English Paper Piecing to be precise, a whole lot easier.  Usually my patchwork looks like this....


See all the little stitches holding the fabric onto the hexie templates?


Well, now, thanks to this little beauty that is a thing of the past.....fabric glue in a stick :)


Can't remember where I go tit from but if you google it is should pop up.  Just draw across each side of your hexie, sticking as you go...LOVE IT!!!

It's interesting....




...the things you find on your camera because I definitely don't remember making these!  In fact, I would say that their lack of felt accessories and bunting means they definitely had nothing to do with me..... 


Impostors!

Dear Blog.....

....I have neglected you am I am a disgrace.  It has been far too long since my last visit and I know that 'sorry' will not be enough :(  How can I make it up to you?  Would some pictures do the trick....




How about some bike bunting?  I really am in love with it and it has become my mission to dec the bike baskets of Cambridge with it.  Not thinking you can use it? 



What about my crochet tabled?  Look at all those lovely colours....I'll share my drink with you and let you look at my book.  Would that do the trick?

Well, if not that then surely a glimpse of my very first attempts at shirring will melt your cold html heart...mellow your wrath a bit.....


I know you won't be able to resist this cute bunny...made for William complete with his very own feeding button.......you couldn't be that mad at me?


More bike bunting?


Well, definately these shiny shoes will do the trick...I could even bling up your friend,  Lavinia Laptop.....no?


Cup of tea?  Lovely new tea cosy, look!


Okay...my impression of a cat is sure to win you over and if it doesn't then.....

 

Tom Selleck will always do the trick :)


Well, my lovely blog, if you can't forgive me then please accept this small token of my gratitude for sticking with me and not locking me out.....


BUNNIES :)

I know I have been neglectful of you but I have been busy making things...honest.....well, not the bunnies, I didn't make the real ones!  I even have a shiny new facebook page to show for it...hop over and have a look...


and a new shop here that I am only just beginning


I've got lots of lovely ideas in the pipeline and I promise to be back often, really Miss Blog, I do.
