Baring in mind that less than 3 weeks ago, I had not been near a sewing machine since Home Economics class (circa 1988)... I am pretty chuffed (pleased) with the results! There's no stopping me now!... I having an ongoing list in my head of things I want to make...
My next mission is to make some fabric heart decorations.... I did attempt one at the cabin, but not sewing in a straight line is proving a little tricky for this novice...
Anyhoo, my eldest daughter loved my heart attempt, and went to bed cuddling 'Mummy's heart'... I now just have to make one for my other little one... after all, they both share it...
Hoping you are all having a beautiful week!

Ooh, Laura, I'm so pleased you're back - you have been missed! And I'm delighted to see how quickly you've taken to sewing. I want to learn, too. You really seem to be deriving a great deal of pleasure from it. Good for you! J x
ReplyDeleteLaura- I love the bunting and your heart. Way to go! I haven't done much sewing in probably as long and want to get back into it, too. your Thanksgiving sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a relaxing time. Love the bunting! It looks great over your door.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bunting! Well done you! Looks like those Home Ec classes paid off.
