Projects

I start many projects big and small. Some I finish others I don’t. So to try and get myself to finish them I decided to put a blog together… This way I have to show the final product. It’s a good idea, let’s see if it works.

Snow Drops

The first flowers in our garden.


These have pushed their way up through the very unloved garden! Not long moved in during the winter months and the garden really hasn't been touched in a few years... so another project is coming up with this, although may have to wait till it’s a little bit warmer yet!

Buttons and Fabric

BUTTONS!!


These are all from my button tin that my Nana gave me... My grandad was a Policeman, so these must have been spares for his uniform.


So many different buttons.. i've tried to start to put them in colours.


some really special buttons in the shape of flowers and leaves.


My Bisto Tin of joy... This is a collection that my nana gave to me... i like Buttons and so did she!


Some Fabric i have that needs a project...


This duck one is actually blue and cream, but it looks black in this photo.


Lots of florial patterns!


Nice pattern fabric found in a charity shop for 49p!


Cream/Brown flowers and spotty black on white fabric. Some of this is being made into an Apron! My first sewing project for this blog.
