I'm trying to be a better blogger, I seem to be forever crafting, but neglectful of blogging the end result. Sewing as you might know is my latest passion, but I do hop between crafts, mainly altered art, and to a lesser extent painting which I do feel the need to start again, but like most of my crafting, I am very slow and some of my painting and portraits take ages and then I can lose interest and they remain unfinished. I will blog some of my past paintings soon, as at the moment I'm only blogging about once a week.
Back to the project in hand. I love the alluring images of Lily Elsie the rather tragic Edwardian Actress, there is something so magical about her and I can't wait till I can get my hands on the new Oxford Impression stamps that feature her. I enjoy crazy patchwork as you never know what the finished result will look like and you can use scrap pieces of fabric. This is another of the quilted notebooks that has space for an A5 notebook, pen that fits down the spine and numerous little pockets for your bits and bobs
Have a great Sunday and I hope you manage to squeeze in a spot of crafting. XX

This is stunning Paula. A lovely image and the fabrics used for your crazy quilting so beautiful. Love the soft neutral shades.
As Paula W said, wish I was this good at sewing!

Wie wunderschön, Paula.
So herrliche feine Arbeiten dauern und brauchen viel Zeit, wenn man sie gut machen möchte.
Und du machst deinen Werke wirklich perfekt und traumhaft schön :-)

Hi Paula, I just love this crazy patchwork, and this little notebook is just stunning. Your attention to detail is amazing, and always so perfectly finished. I can't make my mind up which I enjoy most, getting messy or sewing, I suppose it depends on which day of the week it is!! Julia xxxx
