Did a flying visit to Wellington yesterday to view the Showcase of Saskia and her fellow Massey University students work. I’m an incredibly proud Mama. Everyone had worked so hard and the results were superlative. Of course I might be a wee bit biased but I thought Saskia’s was OUTSTANDING 😂😂

The Rambler Bag! So cute! Available as a kit with pattern and hardware (hardware is also available individually, so you can make more 🙌). Designed by Karen Pratt of Creamcraft Goods for Maree made it in this very cool design. Love the grungy arty look 💗 thanks to for modelling x link in Bio for kits and fabrics

I graduated Saskia from Soft Toys to Quilts!! She has done an outstanding job on her first ever quilt. Saskia made the sample for our Paper Hamlet Kit. Made from fabric , it is lap throw sized but could be easily upscaled with an extra border or blocks.
