Make a Portable Hand Sewing Station

25/7/2021

I'm so excited to share my latest video on Youtube, all about how to customise this lovely tray to make it into a portable hand sewing station. I show you how I made this zipped insert using English paper piecing techniques and I take you on a fun journey to a special place too! The great thing is, you can apply the principles of this project to any tray and customise it however you would like! I hope you enjoy the video, thank you for watching!

I just watched your interview on Just get it Done Quilts. Your story of your sewing history is very similar to my own though many decades earlier. It’s so nice to see someone follow their dreams and embrace the older styles of sewing work.your grandmother would be proud I’m sure.

Hallo Emma
I love you work...I recently started making small hexies for I don't know what yet 😂 i like doing something with my hands when I sit infront of the tv! Please tell me at what stage do I take all the papers out from the hexies?

Hi Essie, so happy to hear you are making hexies. The papers can be removed as soon as you have joined the hexagon on all sides. Some people remove as they go along, others leave them in until near the end, its up to you. Happy stitching

Hi Emma. I so enjoyed watching your interview with Karen and I have now discovered your website as a result. The tray and pocket idea is great and I love the way you presented the project in the video. The EPP cover design is so pretty and has inspired me to give EPP a go. Thanks.
