Fabric for Oven Pot Holder.

I decided that I am going to have a go at making a oven pot holder. The one I have is so old and ugly. I really love this fabric. Love the owls, I think they a so cute. Its one of my favourite fabrics. Might also have a go at making a over mitt after I finish the pot holder.



My Next Project

A dress for Willow, this pattern is a bit harder so hoping I get though it. Will just have to take my time with it I think.

Skyes Dress


Well I finally finished it, I reckon I did a good job on it. Rushed it a bit as Declan has been sick with tonsillitis and being so clingy. I think with each dress I make I will get a bit better at it. Still a very only beginner really. Anyway there is a pic above. Skye loves it, she doesn't look to happy in the pic but she was tired and not in the mood for me taking a photo.

Ok I am back.

Girls started school so only have Declan home this year. Finding I have a bit more time to do some things for me. Been busy sewing. I finished the romper for my brothers wife but in a mad rush. Bub decided to come a week early so it was a real rush job. I didn't even get a pic of it finished. Now I am onto making a dress for Skye. Have to say its looking very nice. Can't wait to finish it for her. Will post a pic once I have completed it. Then I am onto making another dress for Willow. I hope to get them finished for next weekend so they can wear them to sizzler where we are going for my birthday. :)

All is good.. Apart from everyone starting to get sick as school has started back and we are mixing with other peoples/children's germs. We also have a new member of the family now, a green budgie flew in and was sitting in our front garden. A big welcome to "Joey". He was so hungry and weeks, we caught him and he' s happily out the back in a cage and chats away each day. So glad we caught him as I don't think he would had lasted much longer.

Time to put the kids to bed and as soon as I know it it will be tomorrow. Having a quiet weekend and hope to get a quite a bit of sewing down. :)
