One late night I thought I had come up with a great pattern for a zippy - I wanted a zippy with triangle forms and some curved circle forms.
The day after I started experimenting - and here is the result.
Happy with the result??? - hmm - they look like boats - hihi- but they are sweet ....
This zippys takes a lot of cosmetic "things" or whatever you want to put in them!
I’m so proud of presenting plonkas new home!!
This zippy purse is made in linen and a several bright coloured cotton fabric.
The roof is made in turquoise and white gingham fabric, the windows in red fabric with white dots, the door has a lovely yellow flower fabric - and the grass is green and the buttons-flowers soo sweet!!
And yes – the giveaway!!
My son was asked to give me some numbers last night – so the lucky one is: Annette and Pina!!
(Annette and Pina: I no longer have the emails from typepad with yours emails in (I was clearing me e-mails the other day – silly me) drop me a note with your addresses (and tell me if you want crafting-“stash” or something handmade by me!!)
I haven’t mention it before in the blog - but I want to thank Décor8 and Happy living for featuring my blog and shop at there sites!
And last night I got my 101 sale at ETSY - JIPPY!!
So I feel for celebrating.
So why not celebrate with a little giveaway!!??
Leave me a comment - and at the end of Thursday the 19 I will draw two of you guys and send you a little handmade and/or crafting stash surprise - tell me what you would like!!
And a little picture of some sewing lately (Mette do you recognise the fabric?? Thanks!!)
This week I have made this clutches sewing in linen and different cotton fabrics.
Want to whish you all a happy weekend!
Wednesday is my day home from work.
Oh - I really loves Wednesday!!
Besides some housekeeping duties - I have had some time for my sewing machine.
Among other things - I made this set of 4 round sweet strawberry coasters.I found some fabric already cut and sewing together - I can remember a plan for a patchwork strawberry purse long time ago!!
They are made in cotton fabric on one side and natural coloured linen on the other side - and (of course) interfaced for durability.
They are soo sweet – and a little to sweet for my kitchen – so they have ended up here.
Finally I have managed to finish the knitted dress for my youngest one.
The hat he is wearing my mom knitted for my younger brother - back in the 70tees!!
Brown and orange!!
To me the colours are synonymous with my childhood and the 70tees.
And I have to admit - they make me a little bit nostalgic.
