Thorpe and Co Workshop

It is with great pleasure that I bring to my blog a few photos taken during a very wonderful workshop at Thorpe and Co in Boolaroo in May. It was a full house - with loads of creativity against the background of  gently purring sewing machines.

Here is just a small sample of the lovely work done throughout the day. I am sorry that I don't have photos of everyone's work. 

Elizabeth made beautiful panels for her Sewmiriam Tote  using a Cath Kidson print.


It is always wonderful to see traditional and modern prints working together like here 


 and here.


Fully lined zipper pockets were added too!



Pam worked some Tula Pink magic. Love those stripes


Lesley used these gentle, classic fabrics to make  beautiful blue panels


These vibrant  reds will make a stunning bag 


Cindy is using self printed and embellished prints to great effect here 


and here to make great front and back bag panels.


I always love to see special fabrics showcased and these batik prints are stunning


as are these tropical prints 


Who doesn't love a puppy or two?


Margaret's panel speaks for itself!


Congratulations to all the ladies who attended this great day. Your Sewmiriam Handy Zip Top bags and Totes are going to be gorgeous! Thank you to Janette, Maarten and Chris for making us all so welcome in your lovely shop. 


Taking the time to stitch and get lost in the process of creating something special is always a joy, and sharing it with others just makes it even better. Friendships form and grow too. Bliss!

Happy sewing, love Miriamx
