A Little Gentle Sewing

I mentioned that lately my creativity has disappeared and that no matter how much I sat and stared at the lovely fabrics I bought just after Christmas, I couldn't think of anything to make so, yesterday afternoon, I thought that I should just make something simple. 

I recently ordered some lovely woven labels, which arrived yesterday morning and last year, I bought some fabulous dried lavender but got slightly carried away and ordered a kilo. I had no idea what a kilo of lavender would look like ....... well let me just say ...... it's a lot! 

So I decided to put it to good use and make some lavender bags and some cute little lavender chicks, with the help of Yoda, one of my cats. 


I stitched some cute little daisies with stems and leaves and added one of my new tags. I love the tags, so cute :-)

  5. It's the Annual Cancer Research Art & Craft Exhibition in the Public Hall in Liskeard in March . . maybe with a deadline you might get your creative mojo back. It usually works for me; I do more painting when I only have a short time to get things done. Hope it works for you.
