Crafting / DIY / Mending...

... Call it what you will but our current obsession is patches / badges.

And what fun! Literally ordering from Amazon they are coming worldwide - some in days, some are taking weeks. Its a lottery of patches!

Initially the intention was to iron on...

...mmmmm

Mostly iron on stick but not always with standing a wash. So its 'iron on' and then 'sew' but what ever the method the end result is fab and addictive!

But yes! Will the help of my addictions...

 - Browsing Etsy (for myself and clients and myself again!)

 - Shopping (again for myself and clients and... again!)

 - Textiles

I found these wonderful Kimonos! So stunning and so easy to throw on!
