When I heard that Miss Rose Sister Violet was releasing a fabric range, I was so excited. Riley Blake Designs very kindly sent me some advance yardage of Rose and Violet’s Garden to play with, and I must confess that it was exactly what I expected from this vintage loving company! The dreamy pastel tones, […]
‘A Festive Collection’ by Liberty Fabrics
I’ve recently joined the blogging team for Riley Blake Designs and get the absolute privilege of having early access to upcoming fabrics so that I can showcase them for you! For my first project I chose to work with ‘A Festive Collection’ by Liberty Fabrics. It’s never too early to work on Christmas projects, is […]
Baby on Trend Fabric
Jemima from Tied with a Ribbon has designed her very first fabric range and she kindly asked me if I’d like to create a project using some of the prints. “Baby on Trend” comes in three colour ways; blush, dove and woodland. Here are some of the woodland prints she sent to me. They’re lovely […]
Make a Flower Appliqué Tote Bag with Thermoweb
I have always enjoyed appliqué so when I needed to design my latest project for the Thermoweb blog, I knew I wanted to make appliqué a part of it. Thermoweb produce all those ‘behind the seams’ products that make our sewing projects turn out so well (things like interfacings, stabilisers, fleece, fusible appliqué webbing and […]

So that’s all the ‘invisible’ products that we use in almost every sewing project we create (…think fusible fleece for quilting, embroidery stabilisers, and heat bonding webs for […]

I’ve always loved decorating for Valentine’s Day and this wall banner for little love notes will match my decor beautifully! You can access the full tutorial using […]
Christmas Cracker Table Runner for Thermoweb
We’re gearing up for a hot, sunny Christmas Down Under. Think salads and prawns, baked ham and trifle! Having a Summer Christmas doesn’t seem that strange to me (being that it’s all we’ve ever known in the Southern Hemisphere). But it does feel odd singing about the snow, thinking about hot chocolates by the fire […]
Christmas Joy Cushion for Thermoweb
Being a Fabric Education Designer for the Thermoweb brand means that I’m regularly sharing tutorials for sewing projects I’ve designed. The brief for this month was Christmas Cushion. Sometimes having a brief helps to narrow down what you want to do. But sometimes it’s still difficult to decide! I’m a self-confessed Christmas-aholic and I love […]
Autumn Felt Hoop Art with Thermoweb
Some of you may remember that I am now guest posting over on the Thermoweb blog as a Fabric Project Designer. I really like this as I get to try out lots of the Thermoweb products. Many are things that I use in my everyday sewing but there are some that are new to me […]
