Felt garlands and Make Your Own kits to sew at home

02/11/2026

Christmas 2025 was all about Nativities and Pangolins. An odd mix, I'll admit, but given that that's all my post run consists of today, it looks like 2026 is following suit!

Oops, did I do that again? 🙈 Yeah, I got busy and social media became a distant memory... again! 😂 Best-laid plans to post regularly? Out the window! 🚀 But, in perfect timing for Halloween, I've got four new makes ready to spook... I mean, post! 🎃 Make Your Own kits for Under the Sea, Pastel Woodland, and the 9 and 13 piece Halloween sets. Get ready for a week of non-stop social media madness, and then... p**f! I'll vanish until November, no doubt! 😂

Make today’s weather with me. It’s a grey old day down on the south coast, but not quite the washout the forecast led me to believe. So no sparkly blue raindrops for this little guy. If only I could actually sew this fast! A great little sewing project for a glum day, perfect for beginners. Find the kit on Folksy or the pattern on Payhip.

My town hosts a regular free-cycle event where households register to offer their unwanted items to neighbours. Yesterday was our most recent. It’s amazing for children’s items as they age out of toys and game so easily. We had a great clear out of the shed and loft and even won best display (I think it might have been the sunflowers which swung it). Just have a look at some of these great displays, all offered gladly at no cost at all. How cute is that?!

Good luck to all the Saturday ticket hunters! Not being relevant to my business, I might have adapted my last post a bit. Apologies for the jumpscares, ha!

What would you display today? It's been glorious here on the south coast today, but a little more questionable up in Yorkshire where my husband was.

Some days only one cloud won't do!

POV: You’re trying to work out your social media strategy for 2026… and realise you have absolutely no idea what you’re supposed to post. 😂

Apparently I need a strategy.

Apparently I need hooks.

Apparently I need to “create value”.

I make felt decorations. I’m just trying to work out what on earth to film while I’m doing it. 😂✂️

So here I am, figuring it out as I go…

Anyone else? 👀

I'm a total weirdo when it comes to making kits - I have always batch made them in 4's and 8's because, let's be real, it's all about maximizing that embroidery thread real estate! I mean, who needs freedom of choice when you can have 8 identical kits, am I right? 😂 As a result, I've got a stash of ready-to-go kits just waiting to be shipped out ASAP. Yesterday's spares are a wild mix - think Christmas Woodland, bright Dinosaur, pastel Princess, and my personal fave, Nautical. Links below for all you impulse shoppers out there... who can resist a deer with glittery antlers, anyway? 🦌✨

Blanket stitch is the trickiest part of sewing felt decorations. But, not to give away all my magic secrets, it’s really not that tricky at all. Do a quick practise on two offcuts of felt and you will be up and running in five minutes. It’s a great activity to do whilst watching tv on an evening as it doesn’t take too much concentration.
It will snag on the ribbon or any pointy out bits, it’ll get the occasional knot you need to unpick, but I’ve been doing this 15 years and I just edited those bits out of this video! I should have picked a different decoration to a wind cloud as those glittery little puffs of air do like to grab the thread. But that’s what a video edit is for 😉
