Project: Laptop Sleeve
I used a basic boxed corner to make this laptop sleeve. It is lined with 2mm rubber which gives a solid but thin padding to protect the laptop. The owner was happy with black so long as I used red stitching, so I used bright red cotton for the lining as well.

Chair Covers
Project: Chair Covers
These chair road-side finds are awesome..... too awesome for grubby hands to ruin so I made two covers that are easily removed and very washable to protect the chair fabric.

Man Purse
Project: A small wallet/purse for a man
Pattern: My Design
I have a small purse that lives in my handbag and has bits and pieces for minor emergencies. I wanted to make something similar for my husband so I came up with this man-ly type wallet. It has two zipper pockets and folds together with two snaps.

Wooden Friends
Project: An extra special wedding present for some extra special friends
This project was a collaboration with my clever sister.
We got them a serious present but wanted to give our friends something fun, so we made them .... them! Our friends are into collectables and have a heap of figurines - so now they have figurines of themselves.

Winter Hats
Pattern: Fleece Hats from Funky Friends Factory
Two super cozy hats for my kidlets. I enlarged the Baby Bonnet pattern so it would fit my 3 year old heads as the pattern is for babies. After making and trying on the first one, I lowered the back and shortened the ear flaps on the second one as they don't need to be done up under the neck. To fancy them up, they each have a button - chosen by the hat owner - sewn to the front.
