Crafty












I just can't believe how fast these weeks are flying by! This week for me has been so busy but I have managed to sew up a few more bags for new batches of soap that have just cured. I always ensure that I use a bar of soap from each batch to make sure it is just right and these new batches are heaven! I am really pleased with them.

I need more room in my crafting area so I really need to use up my fabric collection which I know will take a while. (sigh...as I look around me!..but then if I use it all up it will be instinctively replaced, of that I am sure)...but, I am having fun and I am loving sewing and embellishing these bags.

I have been sewing for as long as I can remember. I used to make my own clothes as a teenager as I could never find exactly what I wanted. I used to sew childrens' clothes and sell them at the markets when my children were small and young enough to be my models without a word of protest.

My passion for sewing has now been re-ignited in the past few months, so has my love of embroidery and crochet.

You never know what may be listed on my online shop !

Those bags are just adorable Pam. I bet they'll be used for all sorts of things in years to come after the soap has disappeared down the drain.
Love your work!
