Small Gifts...

These are items I made when I first started out sewing small items instead of costumes. I tried to think of things that could be made to give as gifts. I only made a few items, got lots more ideas so once they've been made, photos will be added!!

I made a washbag:

A cushion:

Two decorative crosstitches in frames:

A rag doll:

Rings...

I got some ring bases off the internet and thought I could have a go at finding something to go on them. Then I thought - buttons! Over the past few months I have collected loads of buttons and they really need to be used. Here are the fist few rings I had a go at. In my opinion, I think they're really quirky and different.

Sewing Accessories...

These next pictures are items I have made that I can use whilst sewing.

I made needles pouches:

A scissors holder/pencil case:

A tool belt (I could never remember where I put my stuff so now I could keep it on me):

A wrist pin cushion:

40s Dress... Went horribly wrong...

My last post was about me making a 40s dress for The Blitz Party. Unfortunately it didn't work :(
To begin with I thought it was going well untill I tried it on. It did not suit me at all! Such a shame because i was so looking forward to making it. So this was my Plan B dress...

Anyways The Blitz Party was fantastic! I highly recommend it! Everyone was dressed up, fantastic atmosphere and fantastic music. Myself and friends could not stop dancing... The next Blitz Party is on May 5th - wish I was going. Hopefully later in the year :)
