Sunshine on a Friday

A little bit of sunshine makes all the difference ....having a very productive morning stitching while the washing billows in the breeze....a lovely day!

Beautiful brooches - upcycling and re-using

Hello and happy Saturday! I'm taking a little break from helping my youngest in his revision for next week's exams and thought I'd do a quick post. Lately my crafting has involved using old found items such as stamps, tickets, fabrics, beads etc and mixing them with colourful felt. Here are my latest creations:


Brooch made with Christmas stamp and bead/button embellishment

Large brooch with a travel theme
