Here’s some of the good stuff from 2013!

First of all our little monkey turned 1 and discovered his love of cake!  That’s my boy.

I joined in some swaps – a sweet pouch swap organised by Ros at Sew Delicious & a little pincushion swap organised by Lisa at Sweet Little Pretties

I finally made some time to sew something for me and I love it.  Its the Jamie Dress by Sis Boom.  I picked up this fabric from a Spotlight sale for $3 a metre, BARGAIN!

I tried out some new bags using Melly & Me’s patterns and loved the results

Raspberry Ripple Bag

Fat Quarter Bag

I also went to one of Nicole Mallalieu’s classes and learnt so much, even though I was a little star struck (she’s one of my favourite bag designers).  Totally loved it and worth every cent.  It was one on zippers, lots of zips in this tote so I thought I should keep it!

Large Tote/Satchel

This year we added some clutches to our bag range in 3 different sizes.  (the 150mm frame using Nicole Mallalieu’s pattern, the others based on this)

Fleurette Clutch

I also put my hand to some quilting but only for me & family.  This is certainly more of a challenge than making a bag.

And not long before Christmas I did my first market for the year.  I hope to be back at Maribyrnong Makers Market next year.  It was a great day.

And the most exciting news was finding out we were pregnant again!  

Happy New Years Eve,
