I went to the Sewing and Knitting Show at Alexandra Palace a couple of weeks ago and picked up lots of supplies including the fabric haul below! I wanted to make something I hadn't made before and as it was my friend Rachel Lee's Birthday, and she often gets a lot of my first attempts…
With less than 60 days until Christmas, I think it is perfectly acceptable to start listening to Christmas music (something I am constantly trying to convince people, myself included). But it is most certainly about time for some Christmas crafting. I have been preparing some new designs for Kate Eva Designs this year including Christmas…
So today I did my first ever craft fair at Muswell Hill Market. Although it was a very rainy day, there were still quite a few people around and it was so lovely to meet people and sell some of my things. I had spent quite a few long evenings sewing and making and it…
I have recently made bracelets out of some of my favourite Liberty fabrics. They are now available on my etsy for £10 and you can even choose to add your initial. Maybe I'm biased but I think they make ideal presents. Or just a treat for yourself! Thanks for reading! http://www.kateevadesigns.com
A strange post for me because I usually only share my crafting and sewing projects but I have been asked by a couple of people for the recipe to this banana cake I made for my Mum's Birthday, so here it is! My Dad is into making banana cakes and has adjusted and perfected a…
So it is my Mum's Birthday today and I thought I would just quickly share the card and gift I made for her. The card is a tiny 4x4 inch Liberty print card and similar ones are available on my Etsy. The cards can be personalised with initials, text or numbers. I made a cushion…
I have finally finished my Liberty print cushions! I was looking for some lovely ribbons for some time and gave in yesterday and went to Liberty so I could match the ribbon to the material. I have finished two designs. The first is in Betsy grey and gold which I have matched with a velvet…
I completely forgot about my Blogiversary at the beginning of this month because I was too busy celebrating my own Birthday in Dorset and then in Bath! However to commemorate the first year of my little blog I thought I would make some cards inspired by my trip. I saw this amazing window display in…
Today I made some teeny tiny Liberty print cards. I decided to make them smaller than my usual cards because I think they just look more delicate and symmetrical. All of these are available on my etsy and I am happy to take custom orders if you would like a different initial or number! And…
Ok, so i'm not talking about the Great British Sewing Bee but rather sewing with this lovely Sophie Allport bumblebee fabric. I wanted to make myself a Kindle case and this was really just a prototype with some off-cuts as I do want to make one in oilcloth so that it's wipe clean and more…
