Just launched! My new Bargello tapestry bookmark kit is now live on the Etsy store 🥳
It comes with everything you need to make one bookmark, including the canvas, wool, needle, stitch pattern and How-To guide. At only £6.99 it’s a great opportunity to learn a new skill, or as a gift for craft-loving friends and family! 🪡 📚

Really pleased with this new pallet project! Planed, sanded, primed and painted an old pallet, then used colourful hanging pots from B&Q. Adds a bit more planting space in a sunny spot. Just as my roses come out too!! ☀️🌸🌺🛠️🤩👍

I facilitated a free community Sewing Skillshare session this morning and I’m feeling inspired to try some new embroidery techniques for visible mending. Where there is damage, there is opportunity to make beautiful again 🕳️ 🧵🪡💪
