rebecca's quilt





Rebecca is part of the UK "Sew" magazine team. She handles the advertising and she is such a sweetheart I bet she could get someone who isn't even interested in sewing to advertise with them, yes she is that good and that sincere about what she does. Anyway the photos above are of Rebecca's first quilt for her niece and I think she did a fab job! Sew Mag by the way is a great magazine full of inspirational projects and free patterns so if you aren't familiar with it go here and check it out! Thanks for the pics , Rebecca!

laura contemori






Pictured above are great softies by Laura Contemori. Laura sent me the pic of the whale and a link to her blog which I then visited. There I found the link to her etsy shop where I found this fab Mokka machine! I have been using one of these to make my morning coffee for the past 30 years. About two months ago I actually bought a fancy coffee maker, you know espresso, steamed milk etc....it worked for about a week and was sent back to the manufacturer so here I am once again using my dependable Mokka machine! These are great, Laura!

tara books





The images above are fabulous cards and baby posters that are available at tara books. Tara books offers beautiful Indian children's books, design & art books, cards and art prints.I absolutely love these "Bad Habits" cards.

erin michael






Fabrics from Erin Michael's newest sock monkey collection "Good Night Monkey" are in.
I have long had a sock monkey of my own, so these fabrics were irresistable to me!
I think these could make really sweet children's lounge wear, the Oliver&S Bedtime Story Pajamas sewn with these fabrics could be alot of fun.
