Sewing and crafting


Decided to get my sewing machine out today to have a play.  I've made a lavender bag heart for a friend, which I hope she'll like.

This is the first one I've ever made, so still need some practice.

I also made an ATC along the heart and valentine theme, with a little silk fabric heart and some stitching.



Hope you're all having a great weekend.

  3. I think they are both lovely - I can just about thread a needle, but doing anything with it then is not a pretty sight!
