Serene Sunday


Yesterday was one of those perfect days.... no plans, nowhere to be, no-one to see.
Time to just potter about the house, listening to some tunes.


Amongst the pottering, I spent some time admiring my busted stash, where I just so happened to find a lovely hand screen printed tea towel that I bought at the Design Market in 2008.


It's now a super swanky handbag, just as I'd originally planned....

This one is heading to my next market, and there may be a few more too!

    You're a very clever lady! As much as I love gorgeous tea towels it's such a shame to leave them hanging on my oven door. This one definitely deserved better. Love the print. It's makes a fabulous bag.

    I can't believe you can bear to part with that! I'm going to follow your links and see if I can find out who made the tea towel.

    Beautiful! That fabric is far too nice to be used for wiping dishes!

    Lovely handbag! I love the way that you have the contrast between the linen teatowel and denim trims. Good work!

    Just gorgeous - when I saw the pic first I thought the fabric was very cool. Why waste it on a tea towel. Great use.

    I can sew, but I want that bag. Please, if you put it in your shop (instead of the market), can you tell only me? Or email me directly? Good grief. I know how hard it can be to build up stock for a market when people want to buy it out from under you, so feel free to ignore this comment, or just email me...
