"Great pattern, i have a bit more than basic knowledge of sewing but this was very easy to follow and very well set out. I enjoyed making this and am making a few more bags to hang around in the kids bedrooms."

Well I got my washing dry! It was definitely a grey day yesterday, but somehow I managed it before the rain came. I was glad my peg bag was waterproof just incase πŸ˜ƒ 🌧
It's been a good few days for my little business. I finally opened up digital sales to the EU, and I have 5 orders to post tomorrow, two of them to Japan!! ❀️

I'm also trying to get a blue tick for my Facebook and Instagram pages, as the number of followers I have got in the past 12 months is beyond my wildest dreams. I'm not sure it all went through properly though so I may have to start again next week. These things always take me ages, but I'll get there.

Have a good Sunday everyone. If it's a rainy day with you like it is here, just know the sun will be back at some point. Personally, love a mixture of weather πŸŒ¬πŸŒžβ›ˆοΈπŸŒžπŸŒ©

πŸŽ‰ Big news for my EU & Northern Ireland friends!
I know it’s been a while, but I’ve finally figured out the techy stuff behind the GPSR rules! πŸ˜ƒ

I’m so excited to announce that most of my pdf sewing patterns are back up and available for you to download again from my Etsy shop! 🧡✨

Thank you all so much for your patience. I can't believe it took me so long, but I am so happy to be sharing my designs with my nearest neighbours again! πŸ’–πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί

Good morning!! 🌞 Here's me sewing a peg bag for a lovely order, but I decided to make an extra one at the same time. I find it quicker to sew in batches, and sometimes make four at once.
I may have skipped through a few of the processes, including a lot of the actual sewing! πŸ˜ƒ

Have a lovely Saturday everyone, I actually got some washing dried outside yesterday. Fingers crossed for today! 🌞

I spent the morning cutting out lanyards, and sewing some together. I may have a fancy sit stand table these days, but I still cut my lanyards out on the floor with scissors. My table's not big enough to spread out the fabric and get a really long straight line! πŸ“βœοΈ

I do love cutting out the interfacing using my big cutting mat and rotary cutter though, it's so quick and easy.

This is not an ad, I just wanted to give a few fab companies that I love a shout out. πŸ’•

I love sewing; it could be a beautiful rainbow peg bags like this one, or it could be a lanyard or ID holder. They all get the same treatment when I send them out though. A handwritten note and some pretty blue tissue πŸ’™

I love this part of an order too πŸ’™

If you need me this morning, I'll be in my sewing room. It's time to get a few lanyards cut out and sewn, as my stock has got low. I like to have a few "almost" made ready to send out incase there's a sudden rush! 🀞

These days, I sew a long strap that can then be made into whatever kind of lanyard I get an order for. It may be an order for loops, or pockets or maybe one of each. It might have one breakaway clip, 2 breakaways or even 3! 😁

This pretty lanyard was for a nursery school teacher, she wanted loops to hold her glasses and pens, and an extra clip for a key. πŸ’œ
I don't just make them for teachers though. Who do you think would benefit from one of these lanyards? 😘
