The Totoro Baby Quilt
Last year I released my Totoro pattern – a paper piecing design that creates a 15″ Totoro panel that can then be used for whatever you like! I used it to make a nappy/diaper wallet that is still in use today! Although he could do with a wash… And this year I need to sew another Totoro, except this time,… Read More

Itedakimasu!
I’m a part of Wombat Stew – a paper piecing bee of Aussies (and now 1 honorary Aussie!) – and we have just finished Round 1. I kicked it off all the way back in September, asking for Japanese cuisine-themed blocks. And wow, the girls delivered! Marieka made 2 cups of chopsticks and the plate in the bottom corner, Jane… Read More
What I Will Wear
I have had the urge to try sewing clothes for a while. I dabbled with kids’ PJ pants, and won. And now I have my eyes set on sewing a top for me. I’m thinking the Wiksten tank as I know that style suits me already, having got 2 similar tanks in my wardrobe and I’ve heard good reports about… Read More

TGIFF: 20 Minute Library Bag
This week, Isabelle started the fortnightly (ish…) playroom at Jonathan’s preschool. It’s a 1 hour program that mums and kids go to together the year before they start preschool, and are roughly every fortnight to equate to 20 sessions in the school year. And as such, she needed her own school book bag to carry her indoor shoes and papers… Read More
Paper Pieced Pompom Tutorial
When I first shared these paper pieced pompom blocks last month in the monthly bees and BOMs round up, many of you were rather impressed, for which I thank you! But they’re really not the tricky -all I did was use the very popular paper pieced flying geese pattern. If you look carefully, you can see that the lighter solid… Read More
Just Keep Swimming…
I had a wonderful Saturday, when my husband took the kids out for over 4 hours and I got half of my Good Fortune quilt quilted up. I had much more success than the first block, although still not perfect, but I had fun quilting whilst watching new episodes of Gossip Girl via Hulu, and took an intermission to go… Read More
