Let´s do something!

let’s do something positive to reduce the hideous number of plastic bags being used - 1 million are consumed per minute globally - of which hundreds of thousands end up in the oceans.

the idea is to get together with people in your local community, drink wine and make reusable cloth bags (from old duvet covers, curtains from charity shops etc) and hand them out to the unsuspecting public for free on specified dates outside different supermarkets.

meet new people, do something marvellous for the planet and beat other pods (groups) of baggers with your morsbag tally.

go to www.morsbags.com to be a part of a wonderful thing!

p.s. non-commercial/ non-profitable - just full of beneficial things for everyone, especially whales!

Giveaway at Hartfelt Fabric Art!

Judy Hartman is gently having a giveaway of one of her works. All of Judy´s works are pretty, delicate and speak for themselves about their creator.

Take a look and ... go for it, like I did!

Treasures

Yesssssssssssssssss........... 

Straight from India they´ve come!  

I´ve got a Pukka Components´ Silk and Sparkle pack. The finest silk, organza in many beautiful hues and ...sparkles!  A Button Baubles pack is shown here too. Colors and textures just unbelievable.

I´ve got a pair of nervous hands to get started working with them. A thousand ideas came to my mind when I first saw them. Had to calm down a little before I´d start working!

I´m not sure I´ll use this piece in the project I have in mind. It´s so pretty I´ll show it anyway, though.

As I´ve said, I´ve got treasures.You can have them too. 

There are many items available at Pukka. 

It´s really worth a virtual visit  and a real purchase.  

What a shame! Such beautiful things and a lousy photographer !

Does anybody see a camera strip?

Long time no see!

I´ve been busy selling the apartment where I live while looking for another place to make it home and moving into.

I´ve kept track of your posts but I have not been able to do more than reading them. I´m also sorry for the delay in answering e-mails. I´ll be back soon, I hope. As soon as I can sit and write about the new home and all the sewing I´ll be doing in order to dress it up!

See you all soon!  

A tiny little gift...

... for great friends who are building a yellow cottage.

It didn´t take me long to put pieces together but I know they´ll make it last...
