Today I have another fun pincushion project for you to go along with my Bridle Pincushion Tutorial.

Gong hay fat choy and happy year of the snake! I thought I’d use this as an excuse to crochet something I’ve been wanting to make for ages.

This week I come with another Victorian tutorial from 'The Housewife' (1886). It concerns making a pincushion from a horse brass.

These garters are perfect for practicing and developing hand-embroidery and sewing skills, culminating in a beautiful finished product.

The Jane Austen Festival is creeping up again, and as this year is gothic themed I knew I wanted to make a new bonnet to match the theme.

As some of you may (or may not!) know, I brought over eighty fans to the Jane Austen Festival to give away as freebies last year.
