This is what i have made today, a mother's day gift bag containing some chocolates and her favourite biscuits . It's hard knowing what to make/give mum now she lives in a residential home, plus everything has to be left at the door so it can be quarantined for 72 hours so i can't even give hand it to her. And this is the nearest she will get to having flowers as the home will not let you take them at the moment.

That looks lovely, how big a hoop have you used for embroidering?  It looks big.

Great idea and nicely within the limitations. Lovely job and it can be hung over a hook or cupboard handle to use for popping little bits (or sweeties) in afterwards.  :loveit:
Hopefully back more regularly! Ballroom sewing may be permanently paused but bag making is the current focus.

That's really lovely - I think the colours are fantastic! 
I have learnt by my mistakes: Sewing machines now are Bernina 720, Bernina 1008, Bernina 801 from 1981, Brother overlocker, ancient but works well
