Ok so monkey wants to learn to sew n has been asking for a while but always ends up having a tantrum just as we r about to do it n loses out but 2day she finally got to sew her 1st thing ever n although with a lot of help and guiding, she managed to create herself a lil tote out of 2 old tshirts... we left the neck holes open too so she has her main section and 2 large pockets... she wanted to have decorative stitches too so chose what she wanted n edged the bottom n the arm holes
Well after carrying my promarkers in a tote and now I have the full set its a bit squished and disorganised I decided to create a supported system to allow them to stand up or lay down without falling out... hand sewing takes AGES! So it took a few hrs to create just this piece so trying a different technique now to get frame made and bottom attached last...
Ive been crafting alot especially as its now my job I was officially self employed as of june 2013 n have made lots in the sewing n lots of toppers I even joined a card swap!... my resolution this year is to save money and also to allocate my time more efficiently instead of panicking lol... I shall add some pics of recent makes so u can see what I have been upto...
