Reverse applique on denim skirt

In a recent  post you may have seen the denim skirt that Valda did reverse applique on. As I had a similar skirt from the Op Shop in my wardrobe I thought I would give it a try this week as I have been talking about doing it for months now.

Plant based cooking workshop

Once again our Simple Living Toowoomba group will be holding a really interesting workshop on the 9th March. We are very fortunate to have Asher, the former owner of the Little Seed restaurant, being available to present a workshop about gluten/dairy free and plant based meals.

Bag frenzy workshop

Today our Simple Living Toowoomba group held the first workshop of the year and it was an absolute delight. Our presenters, Valda and Neralie, presented a very informative and practical workshop and I am sure that even those who have been sewing for years learned something new.

Caramel Fudge Soap

As our laundry is next on the list for a paint job, floor coverings and a few bits and pieces that the builder suggested last December when he finished the kitchen and bathroom, I thought I would start going through the 'stuff' that has been hiding out there for a while. Well, probably a lot more than 'a while'. Make that years! I came to my soap making supplies and was disappointed to find that I had let my 4 litre tin of rice bran oil go out of date and it was still half full. So I decided it was time to use up the oils etc. that I have before buying anything new this year.

Embroidered jeans

Our Simple Living Toowoomba co-ordinator, Margy and I were brainstorming the other day about the coming year and she showed me a pair of jeans that she had embroidered. They looked fantastic and I would imagine would be so easy to do.
