Firstly we would like to thank Karen from
Selvage for her lovely post on our Loyalty Card Wallets. If you aren't familiar with
Selvage, it has loads of wonderful projects featuring selvedges - I will never throw them out again! Our tutorials are currently residing in our googlepages site but the bandwidth seems to be regularly exceeded making them difficult to open. If you would like them emailed to you, please leave a comment with your email address. We hope to find a better place for our tutorials soon.
I am still playing with scraps of fabric and have made up some pot holders (after being inspired by Pink Penguin) for gifts.
....and a camera case for my husband (I had to photograph it with my phone inside - the camera is a better fit!).
There has also been a bit of baking going on. I had to try Suzie's Yoghurt Apple Cake when I discovered it has no butter or oil in the recipe. It is light in texture, low fat, and delicious. I will be making more of these now that apples are in season.
I also made a batch of my favourite autumn recipe - Sticky Toffee Pudding - perfect on its own or served warm with caramel sauce and ice cream.

I love the fabric you used for the camera case. Wow! I've bookmarked Suzie's cake too. I hope to try it out this weekend. How I'd love a piece now with my tea.
Hello again! Sorry that it has been awhile since I left you a comment!
I love your camera case. What cute fabric!
As always, the food looks delicious! I am hungry again!
I'm searching for a fabric like your camera case - i love it for men gifts.
The potholders are so pretty - i have to do some too.
What do you put inside them for isolation?
Oooh, a girl after my own heart - sticky toffee pudding is my favourite too! X
Love the fabrics you've used - very pretty. And the treats look so yummy!

Oohhh yummy cake! It looks delicious. That newspaper style fabric is so very intriguing!
The fabric for the camera case is a nice one! It is like newspaper! And I like the potholders too! I'm glad the cake tasted good in Australia too!
I see there's some serious homemaking going on in at your place. Love those potholders!

The cake looks soooo good. Your pot holders are sweet.
You have been one busy camper!
I love those potholders.. what did you use on the insides???
I have made them before and they are always not protective enough.. even with ironing board cover material.
Love the camera holder. And I am now feeling exceedingly hungry!
Great ideas. You are making me hungry with those yummy looking cakes.
Still loving all your little projects and the cooking, yum yum!!!
Great looking camera case and pretty potholders. Oh - yum - those cakes look delicious!
Lovely pot holders, great camera case but those treats how yummy do they look.!!!!
You have been busy Lisa! The cake looks delicious! Apple and cake is one of my favourite combos. Love the fabrics in your pot holders. I liked your post title too. I half expected to see Adam Hills with Miff and Alan!

Those patchwork potholders from Pink Penguin caught my eye too, so I need to make some. Yours are adorable! And that apple cake looks delicious - I need to try that.
Can I order one of each cake please ?
Oh, Oh, my favorite. When I went to England with a friend, I fell in love with Sticky Toffee Pudding. I couldn't get enough of it. I haven't found a recipe that's good yet. Do you share recipes?? Love your blog. Thanks for sharing.

What a cute camera case! Michael just bought me a new camera to take with me on the road. And I need a cute case like that. Right now I'm using a Fossil Sunglass bag to protect my LCD screen on the back.
Also: the words Sticky and Toffee made my mouth water. I am going to seek out this recipe immediately! I am attending a reunion this weekend and would love to impress old friends! But in order to do that I would need your skill! Look at that picture!
Hey Lisa
Greetings from Melbourne, I have been shopping up a storm :) I love the latest sewn and baked items - Yummo.
Look forward to our next fabric exchange and catch up.

Hey Lisa
Your pot holders look great, you so have put me in the mood to get back to sewing and patchwork and I will definately be having a go at the apple cake on the holidays.
Linda
Mmm yum. I'm drooling over those beautiful cakes.
Mmm, the cake looks yummy! I fell in love with Ayumi's potholders as well- so I bougt one from her Etsy shop :) The camera case is really cool!
Love the camera case and the fabric.
That apple cake looks so very yummy!!!!
Well if it isn't the most talented lady at my salon.
How do you do it. Seriously you are so amazing.
You as a key member of the salon make up the amazing company.
Love you. xoxoxo
Pretty potholders..sweet cakes!!//Eva
YUMMY looking goodies! Love the camera case too! The fabric is great.
Everything looks gorgeous as always. I am feeling a little hungry now...
Lisa, my mouth is watering! I must try the yoghurt cake.
I got to the end of the post, saw the sticky date pud and almost forgot what I was going to say about the rest of the projects!!
Love the sewing you have been doing. Its a fabulous print you chose for the camera case.
I saw you loyalty crad wallets on the selvage blog - totally awesome.
I am freaking out over that camera case fabric - its delicious....(just like all that gorgeous food I am pretending I did not see)
My favorites...pretty fabric play and cakes! ;o) ((HUGS))
So glad you like your cupcake fabric - the strangest coincidence recently was that I was having lunch with Janelle(ybelly) here in Melbourne and heard her mention your suburb - my ears pricked up as I had just posted off your pressie that day and she said you guys know each other! Small small world. I am going to try the yoghurt cake receipie and tweak it a bit by using less sugar and adding a rich vanilla greek yoghurt
Your project look very pretty and your cakes delicious. I'm still planning to make Suzie's apple cake!
Lisa, love the look of the sticky date, my mothers fav....and good use of fabric scraps for those potholders
That camera case is fabulous - can you let us know where you sourced the fabric from? Many thanks.
That appley cake looks delicious! Cheers for the link
