A Tie Top Cushion

Today, I am sharing a Tie Top Cushion, which
is one of the projects available to make on the online sewing course with
Claire at Beautiful Things Craft and Sewing Classes

This is the fifth project I have made since joining the

Bronze Online Course which is a lovely project that I plan to use
when I sit in the garden in the Summer.

If you would like a look at my other Bronze club makes, you will find
them on the following blog posts:-

I have one more project to make, then I move up into
the Silver Online Course to make six more projects.
Claire's video tutorials are really easy to follow along with her written instructions.

I bought the fabric last month from Doughty's when I went with a friend to
  their roadshow in Linford, Essex.

A Scissor Keeper, Needle Case and Table Tidy

Today, I am sharing a Scissor Keeper and Needle Case I have recently made
following a free tutorial from Claire at Beautiful Things Craft and Sewing Classes.
The tutorials can find HERE and HERE on YouTube.

Claire has made the instructions really clear and easy to follow, and both items 

were made from fabric I purchased from Geoff's Remnant Shop in Brentwood

I then looked on YouTube and found a tutorial HERE to make
a table tidy. I use it to collect all the loose threads that I snip off
whilst I am sewing, which normally end up on the floor!
 I made it in matching fabric.

Larger versions would be nice to make as a bread basket on the dining table.

Thank you for visiting my blog today.
