Hello, hello!
It may be the night before the first day back at work, I may have the most spots I've ever had on my face and I will most definitely find out I have piled on the pounds when I weigh in this week but I am ridiculously happy!
This weekend I've managed to make my very first, wearable, stitched item...
A top!
I am useless with a sewing machine but after double-checking the instructions and re-threading the correct way (oops!) and a LOT of to-ing and fro-ing I finally got there.
Soooo proud!
Just two more teeny stitchy bits and it'll be perfect!
I love the fabric too and it was an absolute BARGAIN from the local indoor market so I feel thrifty and smug to boot!
I also had another make this weekend.
It's not nearly as exciting but I've needed one for a while now and know it'll get plenty of use in our house so thought, if it's got to be practical why not make it pretty??
And so, without further ado, I bring you:
My Carrier Bag Holder! Hurrah!
Phew!
Off to bed now after all of that excitement ;0)
Speak soon xxx
Oh, Jenny they're beautiful! Well done you, I wish I could make clothes, or anything really. Bravo!
