Just a quick note from me to let you know I am in fact still alive but unfortunately no sewing has taken place for quite a while!
I have been hit with some sort of series of illnesses, the latest is being full of cold, not debilitating as such but a sheer lack of energy!
I have cut and semi sewn up a Miette
I haven't finished any seams etc yet and this wool blend (actually bought from Tilly in her fabric stash sale) is very thick and drapey. I cut a straight size 8 but I have a feeling will be too big once finished so will have to take in at the sides, I also have a feeling I have put the wrap on the wrong way. I will get this finished as soon as I can and let you know the outcome!
I have also decided to start a hexagone quilt. This will be an ongoing background project that I am not anticipating to be finished anytime soon.
I want to use scraps and will only use 5 maximum of each fabric - unfortunately I don't think the viscose I have are much use as too drapey but was worth a go.
Not much else going on around here, hopefully can get back into sewing soon as I am missing it - again!
Anyone seen the 50% sale on Simplicity and Newlook patterns over at Weaver Dee? I really shouldn't be looking but when I won their competition and bought from them their customer service was so good, makes me want to go back! Stupid really as I have lots of patterns that I haven't yet used!
Thanks for reading such a non-existant post!
