There are some more things you can make using the free patterns here thanks to Anna Maria Horner (Anna is also the author of this gorgeous book "Seams to Me" which is also on my bookshelf wishlist :)

She has designed some beautiful things, paper goods, kitchen items, home furnishings and she also has some lovely fabrics for sale here too as below... where does she find the time?
