bonsai zipper pouch

Friday, February 20th, 2009

A zipper pouch made for a friend using Lara Cameron’s Bonsai Forest in deep red. Thankfully I nabbed a decent amount of this fabric so more sewing to be done!

the season of the slackerly

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009

It’s mostly been a slack Summer season but that applies more to posting than to making. Many of the sewn have been gifted before being photographed but there are a couple that can be shown off. 

Here’s a set of cushions that I made for my brother and his wife as a housewarming gift. Not the classiest of photos but I was doing the finishing touches en route on the train! (typically last-minute) Thank you CityRail for such an attractive backdrop.

I’m a bit of a fabric hoarder, and a decent proportion of my collection includes vintage kimono fabrics, and here some of them feature as panels in these cushions. I find I’m always thinking of panels when it comes to kimono fabrics. 

More to come shortly…
