Katvoet Gallery - Vintage Teacup Class

On Saturday I hosted another Vintage Teacup Class at Katvoet Gallery.

I love doing these classes. We always have a lot of fun and I meet such lovely ladies.

Well done ladies, love your work!

Cupcakes+Cowboys - vintage blocks

A picture from Cupcakes+Cowboys (a lovely baby decor shop on CapeTown) of my vintage blocks. I think they look lovely against the blue and white stripe cotton fabric.

The shop has a range of blocks available

VroueKeur - Article Eau-la-la

In the latest issue of "VroueKeur" (a lifestyle magazine in South Africa) there is a lovely article on Eau-la-la - a shop selling my felt goodies.

They were so kind as to include my zippy bags and handbag. Yeah!

Africa - Tote handbag

Just a quick peek into the making of one of my tote bags.

Choosing the designs and colours take up most of the time.

After putting the colours and images together they are cut out and sewn onto the base of heavy industrial felt.

The lining is cut and the bag is put together, including the handles and trim.

There you have it, a finished one of a kind bag.
