Rainbow Dragon

Sewist — Tue, 20 Apr 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Since Lockdown 1.0, I haven’t done much sewing – the majority of things I made were face masks for friends and family. I wanted to sew something as a Christmas present for K, but what do you make a young boy who loves dragons? A dragon backpack of course! I’ve made plush toys before, but […]

I’m back at the Minerva blog today, with four makes from a metre of Christmas cotton! This was a really fun project to make and as you can probably tell, we had lots of fun taking the photos too!

When I spotted the pattern for Reggie the Reindeer, I knew I was going to want to make at least one of them. I found a pack of two fleece blankets on sale for £3.95, which were the perfect colours for a Reindeer, so he was a bargain to make! The first Reggie I made had […]

It’s Christmas! ….well, almost

Sewist — Sun, 13 Dec 2015 11:45:20 +0000

Ok, so it’s not quite Christmas yet, but I’ve been busy sewing gifts for people. Some of those people have already opened their presents, but others have been good and resisted the temptation…. I think this has to be the best fat quarter bag I’ve sewn yet! The sides came out really evenly, and the topstitching […]
