You may like to hand sew one this weekend. Because it is small it doesn't take long. And when done you have a special gift. To hand sew a Cotton Lawn Pocket Square this is what you need: Fabric: Cotton Lawn (Fine smooth weave) Finished 33cm to 35cm sq depending on how full you like it Needle Type: Sharps or Milliners Needle Size: 9-11 (or 70) Thread Type: Fine cotton or Polyester (Cotton/polyester is durability is required) More details here on the blog including pocket square folds and history.

Share your work here. I enjoying seeing it. For me a new sewing pattern for boys and men.

Pause here for a moment to notice what just happened this week. Whether you made something or simply watched the natural dye workshop…or going to this weekend. Acknowledge you’ve taken something in. 1. What stood out to you most? (A colour? A technique? A small detail?) 2. What felt easy or natural? (This is worth paying attention to.) 3. What felt uncertain or surprising? (No need to fix it — just notice it.) 4. What would you try differently next time? (Keep it simple — one small change.) This is how you reset and make the next project feel lighter. Drop one or all of your answers below. If you haven’t watched the replay - do that this weekend while it is available.

I managed to get a little watercolour painting in after washing and watering the garden and doing some work on my website to optimise it for SEO and AI. It was a nice way to zone out with what was a beautiful Autumn afternoon. It is still work in progress which may end up on a pocket square. What are you working on today?

What creativity are you doing this weekend ?
