Thank you @corduroy-club and everyone who got me to 10 reblogs!

Of the last nine baby woolies I have made I only have three left!

Also why do we say babyknits but not have a term for crochet?

[quirkysewingknit]

Made some new fabric, made these bags from this fabric, sold these bags and made some money!

I should have been at an outdoor market with these leggings today but it got rained off so I have listed them in my folksy.com shop instead (link in bio)

They come in 3 sizes, 0-3 months, 3-6 months and 6-12 months.

Piece number 4 for April and @theteacherstablecrafts #3to5scrapschallenge

I have started yet another project (pics in the pipeline) using my late Mums felt and ended up with lots of small triangles. I try to use every last scrap of things and so this piece was born! It is based on a patchwork pinwheel design with the triangles being appliqued on rather than sewn together.

This is a 4" square, 5 fabrics, 4 trims and 4 threads.

Piece number four of the #3to5scrapschallenge by @theteacherstablecrafts Hearts have been a theme for me this month I suppose because of Valentine's Day coming up (even though I don't partake myself) and they have fitted well with my colour theme. #hearts #slowstiching #theteacherstablescrap3to5challenge #zoknitandsew #ecofriendlysewing #stashbusting #scrappysewing #slowstitch https://www.instagram.com/p/Coj82FcMPPD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
