Guest Star Bonanza: Jo-Anne te Raa!

I used a border from a die cut and the cute prima flowers.

I scanned the Bingo card onto fabric and with a vintage doily made a padded hanger for valentines, for my husband in Afghanistan.

A scan of the vintage school picture, vintage buttons and a scrap of wool felt and ribbon to make a needle case.
I love mad men...EVERYTHING about it and its on my washing line for all to see.

I used the Kaiser wooden board and made a collage of papers, stitching them as I went. I stuck everything onto the board and covered with bees wax....sticking gems into the wet wax.


Hand sewn hanger with hand made knotted paper flowers.....
Patchwork of paper scraps sewn under the machine......my wish for my son that he is loved and always knows HOW to love.

Just to show boys can do pink!

A quick apron made with vintage fabric, and old hand towel and a scan onto fabric of the vintage label in the kit. A little kitsch lace and a five year old to model it!


Today's post brings you some fabulously creative projects and layouts from our January guest Jo-Anne te Raa. (There are still a handful of the January kits for sale). Thanks for the inspiration Jo-Anne!
