I have the bestest best friend – one who messages me to ask what a quilting friend of her’s might like for her birthday because I’m a quilter and might have some good ideas. I recommended A Field Guide To Fabric Design by Kim Kight as a good, interesting read. A parcel arrived for me […]
Triangle Patchwork Box Pouch Tips aka #sweetpouchfail
This week I tackled my Sweet Pouch Swap pouch. I made the panels, and then decided what pattern to use – the Triangle Patchwork Box Pouch from Patchwork Please. Just obviously without the triangles and using my panels instead. I hadn’t tackled such a “3D” pouch before, but having made the Super Tote, I thought […]
Just A Few Seams
Day 5 of toilet training, and maybe, just maybe, we’ve had a breakthrough today… holding on for 90+ minutes from the start is great but only if I don’t have to prompt her all the time. Except this afternoon she seems to have clicked to the message. Anyway! I took today’s naptime to duck into […]

The Tokyo Craft Guide eBook
Living in Japan, and being in the Greater Tokyo Area, I often get emails asking for tips and recommendations on fabric and craft shopping in Tokyo. I love being able to share my experiences and recommendations, but having lived in Japan for a combined 13 years, Frances Arikawa and Angela Salisbury have much more experience at […]
