A few of my textile works. They're my own design - often using scraps, offcuts or experimental pieces. The first bag has a lace flower from a digitised design (not mine) I stitched out. The cords were made by zigzag stitching over yarns and the beads were made using a heat gun.
Pictures 5 & 6 are done with dispersal dyes on synthetic fabrics. The wrap has a free machine embroidered lace border.
The last bag is also dispersal dyed then stitched and cloqued.

That's fantastic! I love it!
Lovely work you are very talented
Thanks for the kind comments on my work.
Fantastic. I love it. Do you have patterns for the main bag?
Thanks Jan!
I don't always use a pattern for my bags. I usually make them up to suite the fabric I've created so sorry no pattern but this one is very simple.
Fabulous ideas and gorgeous bright colours - I'm inspired now!.
Just love your creativity. The work with dyes and machine have taken you hours! Happy freestyling.
Lovely work.
I love it! i especially love how you have created the cord yourself!
Hi Linda,
I love your work, would u mind if I used an example pic of your work for a community recycle craft project I am hoping to set up? Quoting your details of course.
