Tea Time... Or Maybe Not

I have been drinking a LOT of tea lately, more than I usually would. On some days you can even trace my steps around the house by the unfinished cups of tea left behind.

Tutorial: Lunch Box Elastic Straps

A while ago I made a few lunch box straps. We use them pretty much daily, they are great at holding lids of lunch boxes in place. I needed one to hold a rain cover for a pram rolled in a tube but the ones I made before were too big. So I decided to make a couple more but with a shorter elastic this time. The straps are very easy and quick to make, and they are very useful. Here is a step by step tutorial, just in case someone might need it.

Tiny Needle Books

While working on this place mat, I had some scraps of fabric left. Tiny ones really, not suitable for anything. Well, that's what I thought at first.

Apples, Apples and More Apples...

I felt like doing some paper piecing lately. I kept thinking of making some strawberries but ended up with a selection of apples: Red Delicious, Granny Smith, Pink Lady and Golden Delicious. What a variety!

Interesting Discovery

I was going to make a set of four linen coasters with a diagonal flowery cotton stripe in the top left corner. I cut all the fabrics, stitched it all up.

This quilt was made especially for our So Very Little Baby Boy. It took me a while but I managed to finish it before his arrival. And we all love it!
