First of the Tea Towel Wallets

afternoon everyone, i hope you are all well. i have a stupid headache today....I'm not too surprised, i went to bed a bit grumpy and stressed out, whenever i do this i always wake with a bad head? maybe it is because i sleep with a frown on my face?? hehehe.

i was grumpy yesterday night because my job at the cinema is really grinding me down at the moment. i know some of my friends from the cinema read this...so don't take offence. I'm just finding it hard to deal with the place at the moment. because it is quite a big chain there are lots of rules which suggest (to me) that they don't trust anyone who works for them. i know that there are some dishonest people which probably work for any of the cineworld cinemas but im not one of them. i kind of take it very personally when we have to follow 'silly rules'. oh dear...i really didn't mean to rant about the cinema. i know you shouldn't moan about your job as there are soo many people around which don't have one but it just got me a bit depressed yesterday.

Anyways, on a less depressing note. i made the first of the tea towel wallets for the craft fair today. I'm pretty happy with it but not 100% (Arthur always says that i am never 100% happy with anything i make!) i think the button goes quite well with the fabric.

i used some pelmet interfacing when i made this and it has given it such a better shape and is soo much sturdier then other interfacing Ive used before.

i was a bit worried that it would be a bit difficult to get any money or change out but i think it should be OK.

Well, there you have it...the first tea towel wallet. i can get a bit obsessed with making wallets once i start...i don't know why it just seems that once i make one i have to make a shed load more....so followers of this blog....i hope you like wallets!hehehehe

Right...I'm going to do some boring replying to emails and other such.

take care everyone

  2. Sorry you had a tough day. I guess the big company just sucks all the joy out of working in a cinema. Just focus on your incredible creative talent. If you worked in a more mentally challenging job you might find that you would have less creative energy. Just know you will not be doing it for the rest of you life. ( hug)
