At the start of the year, I joined in with Sarah at FairyFace Designs with her group Sew Get Started.
Although there are loads of great Bees and QAL's out there, I know that I will lag behind so I thought that it would be a group that I could join in without having too much pressure to finish things on time.
Each week Sarah has a guest that has a tutorial on making something small. It has been great as I know that I can make them up and feel like I have done something for the day, oh and brush up on some sewing skills at the same time.
So I have made myself a new pincushion out of some scraps from my Little Apples Charm Quilt.
And today I made some burping cloths, thanks to Irina at El Petit Taller for her great tutorial.
I had bought a hand towel from Penneys ( a wopping €2) last year for another project and there were a few big pieces left to use for this.
I decided instead of quilting the cotton and towel together I would sew around the fabric design to keep them together.
Yep. Little Apples again. I have a good stash of it to use up. I hope Sister K likes them for her new bundle of joy.
Sarah's Flickr group can be found here.
Now my Mouthy Stitches pouch, I better get cracking on it!
Very cute makes and I am sure the burp cloths will go down well! But my eye has been caught by the cute label Erin! Tell us more!
