I found a thick sample book of dupion furnishing fabrics while looking for something else and they’re just right as backgrounds for these little greetings cards.  Lucky that I rarely throw anything out!

Cute perambulators decorate these whimsical keepsake cards for newborns.

To make something new by combining off-cuts from a previous project, an old Irish linen tablecloth and some vintage ric-rac is SO satisfying!

I’ve just been asked to make one of my little books as a gift for a First Communion.  After delving through my box of ‘whites’ I found some little cut-offs from wedding cloths I made which will do the job nicely.

Look what I found after a post-fair tidy-up!  They’re so cute I must make some more.

Whilst delving through a stash of fabrics I found this wonderful stripey material.  It will make fab, hardwearing, journal covers for my next craft fair.  What I don’t sell I will be sorely tempted to keep 😉

With a craft fair coming up it’s always good to have a few extra designs on show.

it’s best to just sew.  So, I’m prepping a few little candle cards for girlie birthdays 😊

Cheers – my coffee cup greetings cards are complete.

By sewing onto card and adding a ribbon these little pictures can double up as a card as well as a gift to hang up and treasure.

As I’m sure not everyone wants to receive a card with a wine glass on it, here’s my alternative!

I found a fabulous piece of tablecloth remnant covered in amazing coffee cups which I appliquéd to some jazzy fabrics.

Watch this space next week to see how they develop…
