I'm teaching a class today at Chertsey Museum - and planned to teach a sewing caddy in a glass jar with a pincushion lid. As I started to prep for the class I realised this would take no more that ten minutes so was NOT a good idea. Instead I made this (just for fun, we wont be making these at the museum until December 2020!!!)
Then I had to get back on track: I have a couple of dozen polystyrene balls planned for the sewing caddies so I had to find something that I could do with them. Thank you Pinterest: two ideas!
I treated myself to a new storage organising thingy so spent the best part of a day sorting lots of little bits and pieces into this - I think everything little is now easy to find except a box of bells that are still hiding somewhere
I did some machine embroidery for a customer
And I love it when I get pics of things I've made being used
And that pic wasn't the only one this week: I got this from the Windsor Homeless Project showing Chris with his hat
And this from Lily's granny - what a cutie!
The hexi rounds flimsy has grown, and hopefully the dark rings and the light rings are obvious. I can go two more light and half a dark with prepared hexies, and then oh dear what a pity never mind I'll have to do some more!
I'm almost up to date on the temperature project
And I am up-to-date on the European-trips-with-friends patches. Do I sew them onto a bag as originally planned or would a zippy or a scarf be better?
You have been bust as usual. I LOVE your festive man/gnome elf? Is he a traditional nordic person and does he have a name?
ReplyDeleteOMG! You have done so much! Again! Love so many of your projects - and have pinned the pin cushion idea, as super quick makes are sometimes just what you need in life!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous to see those 'in use' pictures!
