The sound of a happy sewing machine is music to my ears. . I'm working on a denim bag commission, based on the one in the first picture, and I decided to pause and take time to give my sewing machine some tender loving care. . It was making a noise a bit like a car when the fan belt slips. 🙉 . I took it apart, cleaned, oiled, lost some screws, found them again and put it back together. Very satisfying. . Now, back to the sewing without the squeeking. Rich red thread on preloved denim. Crosshatch style sketchy looking stitching. Going with the flow and adding more as the mood takes me. 📍 ✂️ ♻️ 👖 #upcycling #denim #designermaker #madeinengland #oneofakind #crosshatch #janomemakes #slowsewing #vegansofig #supportsmallbusiness #bagmaking

Here are some close up details of the bags I design and make. I love to add appliqué and topstitched embellishments, inspired by nature, and using fabrics with appealing colours and textures. No two are ever the same, ever. 😊 There's 10% off this weekend if you enter 'JENNIFERDENIM' at the checkout. www.folksy.com/shops/JenniferMills 📍 ✂️ 👖 ♻️ #handmadegifts #handmade #slowfashion #uniquegifts #feelingfolksy #upcycledjeans #vintagetextiles #totebags #patchwork #designermaker #vegansofig #janomemakes #inspiredbynature #upcycled

In the garden where I have the pleasure of working one day a week. There's so much to pause and admire, as well as plenty of weeding and pruning to be done.😀 . . . #love #lovegardening #gardenlovers #gratitude #thegreatoutdoors #gardening #gardens #bristol #horticulturaltherapy #gardentherapy #pebbles
