Isn't this


the sweetest, prettiest, cutest little sewing caddy


you've ever seen...

I think so.


Made entirely from vintage sheet scraps (yep. scraps. the bits you might, and I most definetely would, throw in the bin) by the lovely and talented Tammi. 

Tammi is a Perth girl (Yay!) who sews, cooks, preserves, throws the most beautiful parties AND home schools her children! (I know) She's a little bit Nigella, a little bit Martha, a little bit Mother Theresa (in my opinion you'd have to be to home school your children. I feel the beginnings of a headache just thinking about it...)

Thanks to Tammi's generosity I will never have to hunt for my most used sewing tool, the quick unpick, again (the person who came up with that one is a big fat liar!)  Thank you Tammi, I love it x


pretty vintage sheet covered buttons. awwwww.
(also by Tammi)


 I'll end with a pic of my newest tea towel


memo to self: I must photograph more tea towels.
