What lovely weather we have this week. Too nice to be indoors but almost too hot to be outside for too long - our crazy climate.
I have had a busy sewing week, before the weather changed.
As you see above, I made three more little hang about bins. They are all made from small remnants from the fabric donated to Annie. So any monies raised from them will go to the Harry Johnson fund.
The items below are made from the same supply.
This little automatic machine embroidered motif on calico was just crying out to be a pocket on a sewing machine dustcover so, hey presto! That's what I made.
It fits over my machine beautifully so hopefully someone else will love it too.
I used up another small piece for this one...
I think they would make the perfect gift for anyone setting up their sewing room.
She has been working on new designs which I hope she will let me share with you next week.
That's me for this week.
Enjoy the sunshine!

I am in LOVE with those machine covers and I am also in love with the two bin holders that match the sewing machines. They are fabulous.
Seems you are very, very busy all the time. I guess grass never grows under your feet for any reason. Sounds like you managed to help your daughter a lot, too. Happy WOYWW from # 5.
Gorgeous makes Jo but I feel like we have hardly scratched the surface with the material....or it's multiplying lol.

Good morning, Jo!
Ohhh I do love the pink and that sewing machine fabric is adorable! Would be lovely in my sewing-themed junk journals. I do agree that one piece just screamed 'Use me!' Creative Blessings! Kelly #19

Hello Jo. After a Summer away from blogging,I'm now catching up with everyone. I loved the last two twiddlers you made - Under the sea and the Poppy fields. They were lovely. You have also been very busy sewing lots of other beautiful projects -the hang about bins, bookmarks, tissue box covers and the machine covers.
Seems creativity runs in your family and Ben's drawings and paintings are really good. He has a real gift for detail.
The last time we visited Shrewsbury was in the Spring so another visit is due soon. The Dingle was a lovely place to spend time in.
Happy crafting.
