middlenamejane: March 2011

http://middle-name-jane.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Wednesday, 23 March 2011. I'm off work for the day sick but I just can't sit still, so I decided to get creative without exerting myself and made this doorstop. Made from (yet again) that Madder and Rouge fabric and filled with rice! It makes a nice change from the old kete we've been using. and matches in nicely with my newly covered stool. Tuesday, 22 March 2011. I was lucky enough to be given a few metres of some bright and delicious Madder and Rouge. Pattern I made these. Saturday, 12 March 2011.

middlenamejane: February 2011

http://middle-name-jane.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

Monday, 28 February 2011. Before and after. lamp. I found this old lamp in my old closet and decided to give it a revamp. I unwound the old lampshade and traced the pattern onto old maps that I had glued together. To make the shade stronger I glued the top map layer onto 3 sheets of 120gsm paper glued together also, then stitched them both together on the sewing machine. Using a singular hole punch I punched the holes in the shade equally around the top and bottom. New lamp for out entrance way!

middlenamejane: Bagels

http://middle-name-jane.blogspot.com/2012/05/bagels.html

Wednesday, 16 May 2012. Even though they are misshapen and slightly flat, these are delish! Yummy toasted with a little butter and jam. Bit of a process to make them though, mixing, kneading, waiting to rise, shaping, boiling, cooking. Worth it though, so satisying to make homemade :).

middlenamejane: The quilt is made..

http://middle-name-jane.blogspot.com/2012/05/quilt-is-made.html

Tuesday, 15 May 2012. The quilt is made. Finally I've had the chance to finish my quilt. it was so much harder to make than I thought! Now I've got a new appreciation for the amazing quilts my mum has made. All was going well until it came time to sew all the layers together. it all bunched up and when a bit out of proportion. Think I needed a walking foot on my machine or maybe more patience? Anyway, quilt number 1 is made, yay. Number 2 is already on the horizon. Embroidered animals, the fun part.

middlenamejane: June 2013

Sunday, 9 June 2013. Something old into something 'new'. Well it's been well over a year since my last blog! I have been doing creative things, but with working part-time looking after a now 18month old, there isn't a lot of time to sit and write for a blog! Here is a little something that I did a few months ago. We are renovating our kitchen/dining area. We have knocked out a wall to open up the space, so I thought I may as well revamp the table and chairs while we were in the throws of making mess!

middlenamejane: November 2011

Monday, 14 November 2011. If it's a boy. The same pattern as the little ladies diapers below, just minus the ruffles. And the headband won't do for a boy, so I've hand stitched this tie to the front of a top to complete the set. Sunday, 13 November 2011. My little sister just got engaged! We had a perfect picnic in the park with the sun shining and lots of treats. Now for the wedding. Wednesday, 9 November 2011. If it's a girl. The booties pattern is from http:/ meetmeatmikes.blogspot.com/. The muslin wi...

Tuesday, 18 January 2011. How cute are these two! Little aprons, made for a friend in Australia who wanted to encourage her boys to learn to cook. A little on the smaller size, could've been made bigger to allow them to grow, but a good first try I thought! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Http:/ www.artbyanya.com. Http:/ www.paisleyjade.com.
