First up here’s another attempt at a wallet – this time tweaked a bit, and half the size of my original attempt.
I’ve used Denyse Schmidt fabrics throughout – and I’m keeping it for myself, but will be making more for the shop – am cutting fabric tonight for a Ruby Star Rising version, I think. I also have an idea that a log cabin version would be rather marvellous.. what do you think? When folded, the wallet is square, so any patchwork block would sit very nicely on the front.
There are 2 new pairs of newborn-size booties…
…and I’ve been working hard on sorting out a pattern so I can make larger than newborn sizes. Trickier than I thought it would be, but I think I’ve cracked it now. There’ll be more to come…
And finally, here’s a cute little pincushion – it’s ages since I’ve made one of these, I really wanted to do some crochet, but hadn’t got time for anything more than a tiny project…
The first patchwork booties I made were just a few weeks ago (can’t quite believe it, my life has been so bootie-centric since) for the Pings and Needles / Eternal Maker Japanese Scrap Bag Challenge. You still have until midnight tonight to vote for the winner of the challenge. It’s your last chance…! Feel free to vote for me
(but it’s anonymous so I wont know if you don’t!!) – you know the lovely fabric would go to a very good home!

Your wallet is neat! and the baby booties are so cutel! Congratulations on your win of the competition.
Love the little pincushion too
I love the fabric for the wallet. Very cute! The booties are lovely too!
The booties are really cute
That wallet fabric is GORGEOUS! As are your booties, they are completely adorable and make me so broody!!!!
More cutie booties – I love them! I often get the urge to do a different craft when in the middle of something else. And it’s very satisfying to do a little project that comes together quickly when you’ve been fiddling with something complicated. Croched usually fits the bill perfectly for this. The pincushion is so sweet and tiny
