Felt Favour Party Bag



This little cutie is made from an idea from a cardboard bag my daughter received from a birthday party she went to.
I have kept it and was going to make some, as I love making cards and gift boxes etc.
This morning I was looking at it and thought I could make that into a felt bag.

I have searched online for 2" x 2" bags on stamping sites etc but I just cannot find the instructions. If any of you know the bag Im talking about please let me know and I willl put the link or video from You Tube up for all to see... thanks.
If not I will put this on my 'to do' list for you and do a tutorial of them at some time.
They are very cute and a little girl would just love them.
There is no sewing.. all glued except for the yoyo. but of course you could use anything to embellish the front.

Very quick and easy... thats my motto.

Tilda Purse and A new quilt in progress

I am making Christmas gifts...
Another Tilda purse.. I came across the fabric this is made of the other day
it was a 'couldnt resist' fabric. The yoyo is made from the fabric in a previous post. 

I am enjoying wrapping the beads with wire on my purses. I have looked in the shops for wire wrapped beads and I just cannot find them.. so I have decided to just do it myself.. not that professional looking but creative I guess.

The yoyo

Now... I have had the Frolic charm pack for some months and yesterday I got some fresh inspiration.
I was blog hopping,as you do and I came across this quilt on Piece n Quilt click HERE, to view it.... I love the quilting she has done on the quilt.. just gorgeous.
So I decided to have a go at doing some circles. I like circles and I have been thinking of ways I could do something with them for a while.
So I used the charm pack and made the centre of the quilt.
I have yardage that I will use  

A closer look

Hugs

My new Tilda Doll and ...

Yesterday I made this Tilda doll. She is made from Tilda fabrics, ribbon and a Tilda button. I am really delighted with her. She is quite tall. I made a yo-yo and put one of the plywood buttons in the middle, this is what she is holding in her hand.  She is a mix of one pattern idea and another in the Sew Pretty book. The above picture is of the yoyo and button... rather pretty dont you think?

Tilda has roses on her shoes and here is the full length photo of her surrounded by some of my favourite crockery
Her face.


And Full of Hearts is finally finished... all bound up and ready to hang on the wall.
I have use two fabrics in the binding... all with the red in it. I didnt have enough fabric of one of the reds so I mixed them up. I am so pleased with the final quilt.. it is just so pretty.... and I just love pretty...
