CantStopCrafting: November 2014
http://cant-stop-crafting.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 25 November 2014. I'm a bit latchy with this post, can't seem to get out of the bit at the moment. Yesterday saw a new challenge launched over at. Crafty Cardmakers and More. Is our hostess and she has chosen the theme DISTRESS IT. Now I have to say, I'm not really a distressed type of girl, I like clean, simple lines! However, I do have some Tim Holtz stuff and to me he is the King of Distress! Our sponsors for this challenge are. And Woodware Craft Collection. Okay, that's me for today. PS I'v...

CantStopCrafting: I hate zips!
http://cant-stop-crafting.blogspot.com/2015/02/i-hate-zips.html
Sunday, 15 February 2015. To all the sewers out there, can I just ask, does anyone like sewing zips! I must have read and watched every tutorial out there and I'm still struggling. Anyway, I wanted to have a go at sewing a boxy zippered pouch. I found a YouTube video. By Debbie Shore for one that's made using two fat quarters and it's easily big enough to hold knitting needles and wool, so I thought I'd have a go as she explains things very clearly. Linking to Handmade Monday. Thanks for popping in.

Sunday, 11 January 2015. Cushions and an old Singer! Hi everyone and welcome to my first post of the year (and my first post in over a month! I felt like I needed a bit of a break over the festive season but I've given myself a kick up the bahookie to get me back into blogging and crafting. As I previously mentioned, I want to concentrate more on building my sewing skills this year, so I've made a start with some zipped cushions. I used 20" feather inserts so they're nice and puffy! Nearing middle age (i...

http://cant-stop-crafting.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, 22 February 2015. Well another week has passed and unfortunately I've done absolutely no crafting this week. It was my son's 18th birthday on Friday so I have been shopping and organising for that and of course tidying the house for visitors coming! However, this afternoon, enthused by this week's vintage sewing theme on The Great British Sewing Bee TV programme, I decided to take my vintage Singer out of the box and see if I could get it to work. (I purchased it a few months ago at auction).
