✨ Christmas Craft Series ✨
Here are 5 free patterns/tutorials to create some super cute gifts. All of these tutorials will be shared in our stories today and be added to our story highlights.

1. Fabric Butterflies - the sweetest little wall decor, great scrap fabric project & I just use blutak to hang them on my walls.

2. Tote Bags - I have given so many people my tote bags for gifts, I use mine daily! Fill them with other goodies for the perfect gift.

3. Baby Bibs - the link in our bio will take you to our free baby bib pattern. Super easy to make & they are such a great gift.

4. Christmas Stocking - another free pattern in our bio link. Embroider their name & fill with gifts.

5. Reusable makeup wipes - super simple, add some skin care with them and you have a really sweet gift.

I hope you can find some gift ideas🎄more ideas are coming soon.

Today I am sharing a super quick and easy make, keyring fobs & silicone keyrings.

Keyring fobs are a great way to use up scrap projects, & you can always make them in matching fabric to the tote bags.

The hardware I have purchased from Amazon and eBay.

The tutorial is in my story highlights.

Silicone keyrings are always a super fun craft & my kids love helping me with these. These kits from have everything you need to start making keyrings.

Today is our 11 year wedding anniversary, & I will never get over my wedding dress 🤍
Designed by me and made by my amazing Nanny. She designed the lace, hand stitch every bead, and sewed meters, upon meters of tulle. I get my sewing inspiration and love from her 🤍

Scroll through to see my favourite guest at the wedding, I remember getting emotional in the car when I first saw him 🥹 *it’s not who you think it would be 🙊*

What I’ve been up to the past fortnight 🩷

1. Working on my tie up Sadie top
2. Started making some clay magnets, my new favourite craft, next step is to bake them
3. I’ve been trying to go through my embroidery stash of kits & started to make this unicorn for one of my daughters
4. My new addiction is playing Tiny Bookshop on Nintendo…living the tiny shop dream
5. Flying through my TBR pile…I’ve finished One Dark Window, Two Twisted Crowns, The Rose Bargain, The Cruel Prince & The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, I loved them all.
6. Working through my pile of projects I’ve already started, I’ve fixed two skirts, a thrift flip of a dress into a top, and some other bits & pieces.

Going into the last few months of the year (say what?!) I’m focusing on using my current stash of everything instead of buying new, making teacher & Christmas gifts & finishing my sewing project piles.
