something new for everyday

It was only when I pulled my sewing bag out in class that I realised it was looking a little worse for wear. Until then it still appeared (to me) as fresh as the day I made it. I actually felt a little embarassed. To me it's much loved but to others it probably looked a little, grubby. Made about two years ago, it goes everywhere with me and is used everyday. Any wonder it was looking a little tired and sad!

The only thing I could do was make a new one.

 
 I didn't intend to make a red one, it just happened!

It's always nice to see one of your patterns made in a different colour. Have a look Florence's blue version of Cherry Cream Squares.  It looks fantastic. I might even prefer it to the red.

How exciting, Joy has asked me to teach at The Material Girl. There's a two day Get Set for Christmas club and a day of Pretty Things. For more details go to Classes & Workshops 2011.

red treasures - project 1

This week saw the start of the Red Treasures Club. As usual the girls were full of enthusiasm and laughed a good deal.

Here are the Wednesday groups efforts. As you can see red is optional!

 They all look great. Sue finished hers and the others were close too.

Here are the Saturday girls efforts.

 
I'm never sure who is more excited to see the project finished in class, them or me. Looking at the different fabric choices is always inspiring. Have you ever wondered just how many fabrics must be out there!

If you can't make it to the classes you can still join the club. Click here for details.
