Green and silver jewellery/candy pouch
This was an experiment in every respect. The outer fabric is green linen; it is decorated with a silver leaf print on each side (elm, for botanically-minded). The lining is made of synthetic silver fabric. The pouch closes with an elastic silver drawstring. Dimensions 17x14 cm.
"Owl" toy or lavender cushion
A cuddly felt owl toy, filled with dried lavender, to help children drop off to sleep. I made the first one (green) on a friend's request for her 7 year old daughter. The blue owl now belongs to my 9 year old girl. These owls can be made in different colours and can also be stuffed with polyester wool instead of lavender. Dimensions 16x14cm.

Silver deer is painted with acrylic paint on the dark-red background, decorated with silver embroidery and seed beads. Diameter 6 cm.
Green, silver and charcoal "Deer" brooch
A third "Silver deer" brooch. A deer is painted with silver acrylic paint on the charcoal-grey felt background. The brooch is decorated with embroidery and seed beads. Diameter 6 cm.
Felt brooch "Deer in the forest"
Another silver deer brooch, diameter 6 cm. Silver deer painted with acrylic paint
on the green felt background. Decorated with grey silk embroidery and seed beads.

Denim cosmetic purse/pencil case
This is an attempt on reproducing an old cosmetic purse, which I made ages ago using a pattern from BurdaStyle. That purse served faithfully for almost twenty years, and is now used as a first aid kit in our car.
This one is 17 by 13 cm, a bit smaller than the original. It is made of blue denim with green lining and has a proper jeans zipper and an embroidery of a humming bird on the side.
