from my local library

I was very excited to be able to borrow these books from my local library recently.



So many great ideas here - I think I will give this to B4 and just let him choose some things to make.



I love making stuff from pillowcases.
The only thing with this book is that I find confusing is that pillowcases in the US must be constructed a little differently to our in Australia, because they talk about top seams and only one side seam. Where we have no top seam, two side seams and one end has extra tucked up to hold the pillow in the case and in all these both ends of the pillowcase looks the same.
Maybe some of my American readers can enlighten me a little on this.




I think I will be keeping this out for a while as long as someone else hasn't reserved it.
I need to get in and do a wee bit of sewing me thinks- its been way too long!!
Great to see some beautiful new craft books at the library.

I think I will have to put these on my Christmas wish list!

it's here!

I was so excited when B1 and the Girl brought in the mail today and here it was at last.
I feel like I have been waiting for it for so long and now it is here.
I am so excited!
I have been feeling a bit off colour for the last couple of days nothing I can pinpoint, just a vague headache and extreme fatigue.
So it was great to be able to lay in bed and look through it.
The only problem is I haven't the energy to actually make anything at the moment.
What am I rambling on about you ask?
This...
Soule Mama's latest book.
It is just wonderful- I love it!
Expect to see some posts inspired by these pages coming your way soon!
