Sewing Tuesday: Beachy needle case.

Oh hello! 
I made this pretty beach style needle case holder today. I found a cool shell on the beach this morning it has the middle bit missing so it looks like a hoop. I've used it and a teeny drift wood twig toggle to fasten the needle case together. Want to learn how?


If you don't live by the sea then you could use an any twig and hoop shape you can find. Have a look around your garden! Maybe a key ring or a washer (ask you dad or uncle or granddad, they are usually good at finding things like that). You could also use just a sew hoop of string on instead of the shell hoop.

Sewing Tuesday: Beaver Pencil Topper

Beavers are back in Britain! Up until Thursday people thought that beavers were gone from the English countryside but somebody found a beaver in the wild! Here's how to make a beaver pencil topper in celebration of this wonderful discovery. Beavers build dams out of wood - they chew through it with their teeth. Here she is chewing my pencil. Hooray!
