Phew…all handmade Christmas gifts are done and ready for wrapping. I can’t share them yet but I’m really rather pleased with them. One especially which is my own design! Get me!!!!!
It’s too early even for me to be wrapping Christmas gifts just yet. It spoils the fun of the season, I think.
But I’m now itching to get back to some dressmaking and have a couple of projects in mind just as soon as I can get some time in the sewing loft. The Husband is away tomorrow night so I feel a bout of cutting out coming on!
In the meantime, as well as the gifts, I’ve managed to make myself a new apron in time for the Christmas cook fest:The Henny Pinny
Fabric: Hen fabric is a linen mix bought at Festival of Quilts
Black is a linen mix bought from Dunelm
Pattern: Copied from the apron I made recently for Black Purl.
Notions: Steam-a-seam for applique
Cost: £15.
And that’s about it. I think it’s cute and a new apron was definitely overdue. Whilst it’s not the most exciting project I’ve done recently, it’s certainly one of the most useful.
PS.Apologies for the grainy photo
It’s so very overcast and dark here at the moment. I’ve had the lights on in the house all day.
Astonishing…what with it being November and all!
