Oh the school holidays! Well none of us actually go to school anymore but its still the same thing really, I'm surprised we're not doing papier-mache.
After a brilliant trip to Leon's (a local fabric shop) we set about some serious sewing...
Today I finished covering a mini sofa for one of my friends, her kids sit on it all the time and they look so cute! Sadly it had been loved a little too much and the cover had been ripped- luckily I stepped in to reupholster it with some strawberry fabric.
I really hope they like it! (to be honest I'm not sure I want to give it back now- the fabric is so nice!)
Now, me and Hatty sewing is not all that unusual but I am thrilled to inform you that my darling sister has been joining in making this BEAUTIFUL cushion which she lovingly hand embroidered- she also fitted her very first zip... I am so proud!
I could not for the life of me get this to be the right way up |
chain stitch which was lovingly taught by my aunty clare on my hen weekend away |
This is completely unsarcastic, Kate never normally makes thing yet she seems to be nearly as good as me- perhaps I should brush up on my knowledge of the kidneys. So much more lovely fabric still waiting! Including Kate's next project- I keep you posted!
