FIRST OF MANY

Cant believe I'm blogging two posts in two days wow, my darlings all had a sleep today so whats a mum to do but drag out the sewing machine  and do some much needed Christmas sewing.

Joshua has decided he would like me to make his preschool teachers gifts as he thinks they will get a sore tummy from all the chocolates they get (bless him!)
I modified the pattern to fit my notebooks better and this one turned out perfect the other was a tiny bit small.

Once that was finished they still hadn't woken up so thought id get to work modifying my crayon roll pattern to hold some paper and stickers, finished art creations ect.
next time will change the closure only did velcro as its going to an under 4 who struggles with snaps, im going to be making a few of these as Joshua and zoe wont one two and make great gifts for little people, the older ones will probably get my art folio case once I find my pattern (its floating around somewhere)

From the depts of the craft room

Been busy sewing and knitting this past few weeks  and funnily enough none of it was for Christmas pressies naughty aye lol.
First up is a Tiered skirt that was for my nieces 9Th birthday last weekend gosh its the first time Ive sew-in anything bigger then a size 4 so many layers to gather!.

 

Next up a new skirt for Zoe's summer wardrobe

Peasant dress that looks like a nightie to me lol

Another Skirt love this pattern made with only a fat quarter how cool is that!

                           Little miss green jeans, this is my fave cardie that Ive knitted so far just too cute!

Finally I took part in a recipe swap with a group of friends this is my contribution, caramel slice, covered notebook with pen holder and a appliqued tea towel (do you know how hard it is to find plain tea towels managed to find a pack of two so brought the lot to make Christmas pressies too) hope she like them.
