Pocket Envelope


This project was inspired by my friend the lovely and talented DeeDee Catron and features what is an absolute first for me... some actual sewing!
Since a disaster in needlework class aged 12 I have been too scared to go near a sewing machine but for this project I included a spot of hand sewing...something I never do unless a button falls off a favourite garment and I am forced to grab needle and thread. ...but I LOVE how this came out and may incorporate sewing into other projects.

DeeDee was one of many talented tutors on the savvy supplies school course and she kindly provided a template for this as well as some ideas for using everyday supplies and trying different sizes and styles.

I love this cute little pocket lope and will definitely be making more of these.

Until next time
