Look at this gorgeous wall hanging that my very good friend Sandra made by combining redwork blocks with patchwork. Isn’t it beautiful? I can’t promise that you will be up to making this after 1 class, but it will help you on your way. Redwork Class Saturday 21 April, 10-4, £30, all materials included.

Don’t forget that our Tuesday morning and Thursday evening classes resume again this week. Tuesday 10.30-12.30 Thursday 7-9 Spaces are available in both classes, pm me for more info. Suitable for ALL abilities.

Finally cushion 4 for Mylo who is 2 and likes fire engines.

This is Emma’s reading cushion. Can you guess what she likes?

Reading cushion no 2. Noah is 10 and loves Harry Potter.

A few weeks ago I was asked to make some reading cushions by a very old friend. She has 4 grandchildren who all love to read and asked that each cushion should reflect their other interests. Jack who’s 8, loves football and supports Chelsea.

ALL NOW SOLD!! EASTER SALE I have a few Caron Cakes left and need the space so you can have any 2 balls for £14, or 3 for £20, plus £2.95 UK postage, or free collection. 1st come, 1st served, so don’t delay. Btw the numbers on the photo relate to the number available in each colour.

I just had to share this photo that I’ve been sent with you all. This is Zoey, who as well as being my next door neighbour is also my youngest customer. She bought this Knit Pro Crochet hook with her own money and is now working on her trebles to get the tension right. Please keep an eye on this page, as I’m sure it won’t be long ‘til I’m posting pics of her 1st blanket.

Who fancies a day relaxing with liking minded crafters learning foundation pieced patchwork? No previous experience is necessary, and participants need to bring nothing with them other than their lunch. At the end of the class you should go home with a pretty pincushion/scissors keeper, complete with small pair of scissors, all made by YOU. The price for this class is £25, which includes all materials. Please contact me to book a place. £15 deposit will hold a place.

As it’s coming up to Easter, I thought some of you might like to have a go making this sweet little bunny. https://homemadeatmyplace.blogspot.co.uk/2017/03/make-it-granny-bunny.html?m=1

I am having a day off from sewing today, as after 416,000 embroidery stitches and several weeks of work my order of 8 reading cushions were delivered to the customer last night. The biggest problem I had with them was deciding which one was my favourite. Please contact me if you would like to commission a similar cushion, I have many other designs available. #madeinnorthernireland #reading #readingcushion #giftsforchildren #gifts #personalizedgifts

Exactly what we always knew, crafting is good for us.
