Nursing pillows

For my nursing pillow I made a new cover from to unused bedsheets from a second hand shop. The pictures shows each side.I ripped out the zip from the old cover and reused it.

The benefit of using two different fabric was that I didn’t have to worry about matching up stripes.

This bag is made entire out of fabric samples, which is why the colours go so well together.

Earlier I had made another bag from the same pattern, but it was worn down as I used the bag for work, carrying around books for teaching.

I used this pattern from warehouse fabric. The only alteration is that I arranged the pleats different for match up with the stripes.

Years ago I made a toiletry bag for myself using a pattern I created by copying an existing bag.

This Christmas I made one for my boyfriend as well using fabric samples and zippers from my stash.

Inside are a number of pockets in addition to the outside ones.
