Sewing Saturday

Last Saturday I hosted a Fun With Fabric session in the morning, and a Crafty Church session in the afternoon. I didn't get any photos in the morning, but one lady was cutting quite large hexies (2" hexies) for a flower garden, and a new 14 year old started on appliqued flowers onto a gingham background for a cushion. With three new people there was lots of chatting and looking at samples and examples, but not much decision making!!

At crafty church we had 7 I think. Lesley brought along a felting kit that much much better than mine! Mine was one lethal needle which was difficult to hold but hers (a) had five needles, and (b) had a comfy handle, so I know what I'm going to get!

She was cutting out felt flowers which were going to be felted onto a scarf

Lesley's sister, Alex, is working from Quilting for Dummies, and was finishing a lovely trapunto patch, while their mum was working on her tapestry.

Pam is waiting for a pink jelly roll before she starts a new project, so she was on teas, while Carolyn was helping Yasmin with her crochet and knitting

Christmas is coming . . .

. . . and Elsa is ready!

11 year old (!) Elsa started this stocking at the Windsor Baptist Fun With Fabric session on Saturday, and then we ran out of time.  I was only able to give her very quick instructions on how to finish it, and just look what she's done!


How fab is that???
 
And just in case you didn't appreciate the finer details . . .  here is the top in close up, including bells which were all her idea!   (Thanks Tina for emailing the photos)

 Could be difficult for Santa to  put in the pressies without waking her - was that the plan Elsa?

(I will post something about MY sewing one day soon, just as soon as I do some!!!!)
