Needle Cases

 We started the new term making needlecases. For these, we used a combination of fabric, card, double-sided sticky sheets, and felt. We cut the basic shape using a Bigz die from Sizzix which we cut using a Big Shot. we used a couple of different closure options, and decorated with ribbon, bias binding and die cut shapes cut from Sizzix Surfacez in metallic colours to match the fabric.

Beryl liked the fabric so much, she decided no further embellishment was necessarty!

We had several members who couldn't make it to this meeting, so we'll reprise this project later this term.

Felt Lavender Bag Houses

 Shilpa lead this meeting, and we all had a lovely time choosing colours, cutting and sewing. We were all pleased with the results. It's always great to see that, despite coming from the same idea, they're all different!

More Tote Bags

 Because some members couldn't come to our last meeting, we had a repeat today, decorating tote bags using inks, stamps and stencils. All of these used Versafine or Versafine Clair ink.
