Welcome to Week 4 of our Creative Spaces Blog Hop. This week’s theme is Dealing with Scraps and/or Fabric so you’d think this would be the most exciting post for a fabric-a-holic like me…
and it would be, IF I HAD FABRIC to SHOW YOU!!!

OK, where’s my fabric gone???
Well, it’s not just my fabric, it’s everything in my sewing room AND our house… and NOW you’ve probably guessed… we are moving house! 🙂 We didn’t think our place would sell so quickly and so it’s been a mad rush ‘shoving’ everything, that we have accumulated over the last 15 years in this house, into a shipping container for the BIG move. I won’t reveal where we are headed as that will be a blog post in itself, but for now let me just say, it involves moving across the sea!!!!! 😀
I feel bad that I don’t get to show you lots of gorgeous fabrics scraps but don’t worry….you haven’t visited my blog in vain –
I’m still doing

Best wishes with the move!
When I’m sewing, the kids often will ask if they can “help” me. I send them to choose some scraps to make a drawstring bag for their treasure. They get to make something and my creation remains safe. Keeps everyone happy!
That’s a cool idea, Sarah!!! 🙂
Thanks for sharing great information.
Hi Pauline, I just found the Creative Spaces Blog series and am enjoying reading them. Wishing you all the very best with your move.
I like to keep my small scraps for the kid’s to do craft activities with. I donated a bag full to my daughter’s preschool and the kids all had fun gluing them onto things! I also donate larger pieces to a charity op-shop which stocks only craft and sewing supplies. All proceeds go towards assisted living programs for people with disabilities so it’s a win win for the fabric…i get to enjoy it and then someone else can buy it to help another!!
