I’ve been making a few bags lately and thought I’d show you because there’s some newer patterns on the market if you fancy making one yourself! The ones at the top of this post are the Celosia crossbody bag by Blue Calla patterns. I made three simultaneously over the...
I recently played with using my paint by number quilt patterns in different ways. Firstly, I used the same methodology to create outlines which became some paintings… And then I took a Hank mini quilt template and turned it into outlines for embroidery, then used it for punch needle!...
