You know - getting to all those things you'd planned to do but not yet found the time for.
Like finishing the apple dacks and matching top that have been underway for a while for Miss A


and two more of these tops from Ottobre.

And things like shortening some pants for the girls, repairing some little cute pink bathers with leg stitching undone, at last tracing a pattern and sending it off to Charity (it's on its way!!) and finally fulfilling one third of the Pay-It-Forward promise made way back here.
This parcel has now been received by Jen. Some pants and an appliqued T for her little man and a tissue pouch and some coasters for herself.

I am working my way through the last two parcels, but let's not state a sending date!
I also cleaned out my sewing room - figured I should make some space ready for the new purchases I hope to get in a few weeks on my very first fabric shopping tour (hell on a bus according to my husband!).
Then we had a hailstorm - so that gave me something else to do, clean up a few odd leaks from what was a huge deluge and calm a hail-fearing screaming toddler.

So what now?
I'll have to see where the sewing whim takes me I guess.
Love the little apple set for Miss A Karen, a very cute combo.
ReplyDeleteThose outfits look terrific!! And uh, yeah...it does sound a bit like nesting :P
ReplyDeleteKaren, great outfits. I love the one you sent to Jen.
ReplyDeleteYay, Karen, thank you! It's just finally starting to get warm here, so I'll be watching for the pattern. :0)
ReplyDeleteI love the apple outfit, so sweet.
I love the apple set too. Very cute.
ReplyDeleteI tried sewing the Ottobre top too but stuffed up with the shoulders (didn't stabilise it properly) so it went to the WIP pile and I forgot all about it until I saw these ones you sewed. I really love the style of that top so I should get back to it.
