I started stitching a few years ago thanks to a very dear friend. She has encouraged and taught me so much. I am the Mum of three great kids who I love dearly. I love to stitch in my spare time and even though I am a newbie I enjoy it very much.

Clam shells.....almost done

Well after a nice few days away, I have finally got back to my clam shells from Nundle.

I managed to get them all together. I loved doing the clam shells but am not happy with my suffolk puffs. I struggled to sew the puffs into the sides and I dont have the magnetic clasp yet. I have half sewed in the sides and tied it up with ribbon for a day or two so it stops fighting me while I try and sew them in.


Happy Stitching.
