Jo's Rucksack

Jo is a keen cyclist and wanted a comfortable rucksack that she could

use while on holiday. She saw a pattern and then adapted it to 

suit her fabric and put the pockets where she wanted too.

Jo put in her button straps which she can alter depending on what 

she is carrying.

She uses this technique on a few bags now and it is 

such a good idea. 

it just means putting an extra couple of buttonholes into your

strap so that it can be altered.

Textile Tuesday

Textile Tuesday always have wonderful 'Show and Tell'.

We do this as a start to the session so that people can share 

what they have made and also so I can add the tips and extended ideas.

Carol and Pat had both made cushions out of 

upholstery fabric and charm packs.

Beryl made yet another lovely bag and also the flower

looked wonderful as an embellishment.

Embellished Flower Brooches

While we were having our textile session at Cancer Care

Beryl popped in with some of her Embellished Flower Brooches.

For the Centre to sell at their coffee morning which they hold once a 

month on the last Tuesday.

Beryl has been coming along to textiles for 18 months and her first 

session with me was on the Embellisher Machine,

she fell in love with the technique and got a machine immediately.

She is now a master and her Embellished Flower Brooches

 don't stay unsold for  long, 

as you can see by the hand coming into the photo!
