I didn’t make my festive outfit. I am a little sad, but I had this lurgy that you cough and cough and nothing happens. GP said it’s viral so no tasty antibiotics for me…. Anyway. I did mend husbands shorts and a pocket on his waterproof coat.
And then I got my big boy involved in some sewing
We made teachers gifts, little hand warmers, from some fat quarters form hobby craft that I had in my stash. Big boy did some careful cutting with my fabric scissors, then he was put in charge of the pedals and listened well to go and stop commands from me. It’s a big deal for my kid as he is non verbal autistic and some simple things aren’t simple at all. Super proud of him. He was also every good and taking pins out and putting them back into the pin cushions and cut off the thread with small scissors.
I did finished them up by myself. Has to resolve to come hacks for bulky seams.
There are bunch of tutorials on YouTube for these by the way.
It is also my birthday month! And I was very lucky to get an overlocker, Elna 664. She is great but I didn’t really have much time to play with it just yet! Looking forward for lost of speedy knit makes!
But I did some sewing or needle related craft, that’s a thing right!
I got this stunning hand made cardigan from charity shop but then buttons were awful, I change them to a nice natural looking ones. And
I have finished a little cross stitch from lovely innocent bones box which I had in my stash like for over a year. I found this very relaxing and a nice way to spend an evening. Very good for my busy mind.
