Ha ha ha Happy New Year...

Ok, so it's been a while.  No excuses, no story to tell.  I've still been crafting but maybe not as much as I'd like.

I've seen a lot of sewing mats on Pinterest and other people's blogs so my mum, sister and I set to one day and made one each.

I went for a nice fat quilted base in plain cream with a lovely vintage-style rose printed edge.

The pockets along the front are made with a sewing theme printed cotton and have vintage sewing pattern panels on them.

I'm hoping this little mat will keep all my sewing necessities in one place and save me time in the long run (I'm always putting my scissors down and losing them, even when I'm just sat at my machine :/ ).
