Fancy joining me for a rip-roaring denim workshop Fancy joining me for a rip-roaring denim workshop this month!! If you can't fit into your jeans post Christmas never fear! Turn them into a useful zippy pouch! Go for a simpler design and construction if you're new to sewing denim (top pouch) or be a little more adventurous with texture and the features and characteristics of your jeans (bottom pouch). I'll teach you how to set up your machine to cope with thicker textiles, how to quilt-as-you-go and turn your quilted panels into a practical and sturdy pouch! More info and full list of materials and booking available via @craftymonkies #quiltingworkshop #denimpouch #repurposeddenim #recycledjeans #onlineworkshop #craftymonkies #zippypouch

We are into our last few weeks of #kindredspiritsq We are into our last few weeks of #kindredspiritsqal And this week we are making two Spools blocks. The history of this block goes back 1900 when The Ladies Art Company designed an empty spool block to serve as a reminder of when women on both sides of the early American Civil war gave over all their fabrics and threads to the making of lint and bandages for the war effort. I'm sure we will have much less drama from our kindred spirits this week!! #sewingcommunity #quiltalong #samplerquilt #quiltblocks #justjudedesigns #spoolsblock
