I am on cruise at the moment on the way to the Mediterranean, sea has been very choppy and I,very been feeling really queasy. Still we have done 2 classes today. The guests have each made a sewing kit to keep for future travels.

Hi, I won’t be posting for a while as I am off cruising again for the most of March into April. Just finished packing all the kits I will need. First I am off to the Mediterranean for 2 weeks, home for 1 week then on board again for 12 days round Britain. Hope the weather and waves are kind to us.

I have been really busy with my denim recycling. That’s tote bags at £12 each, turtle or fish floor cleaners at £7 each, small a crossbody bags at £12 each and owl holder at £8. Contact me if you are interested in any but they will all be different as unique.

As you know I enjoy messing around with recycled denim. I saw this idea on Denim Recyclers and thought I would have a go. Just made this, so useful for holding things around the house.

I,m not feeling to great today but I still just can’t sit and do nothing. I have some 100% wool felt so decided to make and embroider a corner bookmark. The backing is an advertisement coaster that came through the door. Think I will do some more initials.

Hi, well I am away again teaching on a cruise ship. We had a wonderful Christmas Day and I only had to do 1 class which was full. The class made Diamond Art bookmarks which were well received. Before we came away I made a crossbody bag which has been really handy on this trip.
Happy new year to you all. Today we are in Lisbon, Portugal and sun is shining.

Denim Upcyclers is the new FB page I have been getting ideas from. I have just made this crossbody bag from some recycled jeans and some marine canvas. Strong, sturdy and kind to the planet. Will be making more things from that FB page. Happy December!

In between creating all the new craft kits for my forthcoming cruise,I have managed to make this spacious bag , which I am really happy with. I am hoping to see more whales on this cruise so thought the fabric appropriate.

I always like to try new things so thought I would make these 2 Dorset button brooches. What do you think? They were quite fiddly but also quite therapeutic.

Hi, whilst at home for a while I have been putting new items onto my Etsy page. Please pop along an have a look. Www.Etsy/shop/Sandiesselection.com

We have recently returned from a cruise to Norway. They have some fabulous craft shops there. Whilst in Honnisvag, near the North Cape, we found this Christmas shop. Took some pics as there are a few ideas for things I could make on my Christmas cruise. What do you think would be fun to make?

I am in Lisbon, Portugal today on board Saga Spirit of Adventure. I don’t have to give craft classes today so decided I would sit and craft for myself. Making Coronation hearts.

Hi all, sorry that I haven’t been on here recently but have been away teaching crafts on a cruise ship, everyone seems to have enjoyed themselves.
Please go to my personal page to see where I,ve been and what I do. Look for Sandra Izatt.
