Walk and Weft

Ann has just finished these handy little toiletry bags in undyed tweed.  We think they are pretty smart and compact, and there's no doubt many other uses they could have - pencil case for starters! And also... we are really enjoying seeing patchwork squares come together into vibrant, interesting and useful objects.   These are larger than the toiletry bags, unique as always and look great. Ok, so they are not all square...

The Zoe bag, now available, emerged from the same form as the Isabel Tote Bag, but uses semi-random coloured strips of tweed to form a unique distinctive whole. Both sides are different, and inside there's plenty of capacity for all your needs.

Having decided to name our bags after relations, we suddenly found that an Isabel bag had been sold... to Daniel's sister Isabel!  Of course the bag was named after her, and she said that her favourite colours were all there in the bag.  She did ask for a zip on it, so Ann went to work to figure this out.  The result is we now do have a zipped variation for the Isabel bag!

Had a nice day at Edinburgh Yarnfest last Saturday.  This festival is mostly for hand knitting but I found plenty of stuff to inspire me. Edinburgh Yarn Fest website Daniel and I took our motorhome up to the Caravan Club site which is north of the city centre and we had a very busy weekend exploring and using the excellent bus service to get about.
