Let it sew...

Christmas sewing has started. I've made cute bunting and H's dress. Bit of a snag with Mr B's outfit: the pattern was incomplete. Off to exchange that tomorrow.

The power of the net

It is simply fantastic, that when you are in the middle of a project, and unsure of what to do, you have access to a huge collection of resourses; they are simply a click away.

Today I was making a tote for Miss H's lunch box, and could not quite remember how to do boxed corners. I did not want to spend (more) hours with Mz QuickUnpick, so instead I did a quick search using Google (or "googled" it - an age where even a search engine becomes a verb).

My search rendered this very nice explanation, complete with photos Craft apple

Within 5 minutes my problem was solved. Viva l'internet.

Frog!

I HATE unpicking, but when you've been a goose and sewn the wrong sides together...there isn't much choice.

Hs Skirt

Well today I finished my first skirt. H is over the moon and I get all those warm and fuzzies. I have enough material to make two more (yay!!). It has been a steep learning curve and I'm looking forward to the next one going a little more smoothly, with fewer "frogs".
