Last one


Here's the last birthday card for June - this one is for my nephew. June is the busiest month for birthdays so I'm glad I've made them all and I've got them all done on time ;-).
Spent some time yesterday doing the road playmat - while spending the rest of the time being harrassed by ds3 as I'm not doing it quick enough.
The other playmat was well received so I'm very pleased.

Love, love, loving the sewing machine


After tea I sat down to play with my sister's sewing machine while the kids were watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - oh I do miss mine. I made the playmat which matches the toy bag and I made the pink bag as well. The playmat measures 110cm square (probably a little big but never mind). I'll show you the bag once the recipient has received it.
For those of you who wonder how I manage to fit everything in - I do the bare minimum of housework, and I make sure that I have crafty time otherwise I would go mad (well madder than I am already ;-) ).
I've got a fair few jobs that I can do now I've got a machine - finish the road playmat, make my san pro pads, alter the curtains, hem some table clothes for my sister (I should have done these tonight as that was one of the conditions of me borrowing the machine, whoops), make the bed storage pockets...........going to stop there.
