I'm up to my old tricks and making baby stuff.  (no, not for that reason!) I used to make lots of baby things out of fabric I bought from reprodepot .  They have some really amazing vintage look fabrics that I just fell in love with.  I had an ebay shop and even though I sold quite a lot, it was never going to make any money.  I considered approaching shops but quickly realised that I didn't have the stomach for churning out tons of the same things over and over.

I love the thrill of the chase, new fabrics, new projects, new designs, new clients etc.  I actually have a very small attention span and crave new things to do.  All the time I am working on a project I am looking forward to starting the next job.

Anyway, I have been teaching at The Eternal Maker in Chichester and the classes have been in soft furnishings which is my day job.  However the one coming up is the 'Yummy Mummy' course and this entails making a pouch for 3 nappies and a pack of travel wipes.  Also making a travel change mat/burp cloth.  The store needed a sample to help those interested in the course to see what they would be making.  So today I made them a set out of Heather Ross - Rabbits and Racecars fabric which is sadly discontinued now.

I am really pleased with them and really enjoyed making something little again.  It's just as well I had a little practise too as I did have to use my unpicker a few times!

I am really looking forward to seeing everyone get creative with the amazing fabric selection available.
