Hello everyone! How are we all doing during Lock-down Mark II? Nikki has been busy making so many beautiful toys that I found it hard to select just one to share with you! In the end I chose this sweet Dainty Dachshund 🐾as we haven't seen one here for quite a while. Keep smiling guys and keep those hands occupied ✋🤚 xxx#sewing #handmade #myfabricheaven

🧸Today I have some special memory bears to show you, made by Katy from the Harley Bear Sewing Pattern. She told me "The bears had a very special part to play in taking the owner's Grandad on his final journey. Thank you to My Fabric Heaven for a perfect pattern..." "It's a lovely pattern to work from"🥰  What a sad but poignant story. I'm sure your gorgeous bears will continue to give them lots of comforting hugs, a lovely reminder of their Grandad that they can keep and treasure! Thank you for sharing Katy, these bears are just beautiful!! xxx...

🌞 Happy weekend at last - I hope you guys are also feeling better for the cooler temperatures! Today I have this little lovely to showcase, kindly shared by Julie who made her using the Harley Bear PDF Sewing Pattern. I love the summer florals mixed with the candy pink and butterfly print ears! A perfect pink teddy for a little girly girl! 🌸🧸🌷#myfabricheaven #sewing #handmade #teddybear

Good morning lovelies, this week I had the sweetest message from Mary and her young granddaughter Elle who showed me they'd been crafting some beautiful creations together from some of our patterns. They were all made from Mary's husband's shirts as memory/keepsake toys. I think this Ella Elephant is absolutely gorgeous, and I love the wooden "handmade" buttons too!! Thank you so much for sharing your story Mary and Elle xxI'll show further photos of their other creations another day, so watch this space...  

Look at this fabulous furry bear made by Barbara from the Harley Bear Sewing Pattern.  She said..."Hi, I thought I’d share my pic of the little bear I made from my Mum’s fleece. I used the Harley patchwork bear pattern. The instructions were so easy to follow and I’m really happy with the result. Thank you 😊"I love how this bear looks made with a fleecy fabric, so soft and cuddly! Its inspiring me to make a teddy using some recycled fleeces! Thank you for sharing the idea Barbara xxx
