Handmade Market is looming

3 sleeps to go and I'm still busy sewing, sorry but there's not much else to blog about really.. just more sewing as that's all that's going on here  :-) Some new quilts added to the stock pile today and I'm still loving the lace-edged tape on the bunting. I'm going to run out of it all too soon.

so lovely to soak up the sunshine today and finally get some washing dry.

this past week


I tried a quilt without binding, and I love the result. I will be doing this method again!




I sewed lots of bunting for the markets


and something for the boys


And the munchkins chose fabrics for their heat bags. In our house heat bags replace security blankets /taggie's / sleepy rugs etc... and they sure get a workout.

what can one do but sew?

or I could play in the puddles like the kids do I suppose! But with only 8 days til the Canberra Handmade UpMarkets, even if it was sunny, I would still be sewing!
The cool weather has me thinking of warm and cuddly things, so this week I have added Heat Bags to the range at Sparrow Bee. These are backed with a soft (and cuddly) chenille... all ready now for the cool nights which are coming all too quickly.
