Life has been utterly crazy for months now and has kept me totally sidetracked! I haven’t been able to get anywhere near my sewing room for some time. It’s a good thing to have lots to do but I missed my sewing room so much!
But this week, I finally found my way back to the sewing machine.
and Oh! it felt so good!!
It all started with making Halloween costumes for my grandkids. I sewed an Ariel costume, from The Little Mermaid; and Dorothy, Scarecrow and Lion costumes from Wizard of Oz. It’s fun making the little ones happy.
Then thanks to my newest grandson I began a new quilt. Our adorable little baby just absolutely needed a quilt from his grandparents
And poking around in my sewing room (getting reacquainted) I came upon this quilt that was started some years ago. Along with it, was some fabric pieces I picked up along the way to finish it but then never did. The spark hit me and and now its all together and it didn’t take very long. I’m thinking I might donate this one.
All this in the past week…it was great!!
I’m crossing my fingers that life calms down now for a while…till Christmas at least. Oh my…that’s coming up fast isn’t it?
No need to speak of Christmas yet. Glad you found some time in your sewing room.
ReplyDeleteI hate being away from mine too. I'm glad you're back. The costumes sound pretty amazing - you must be a fabulous grandma :0)
ReplyDeleteThe airplanes are very sweet - of course he need a quilt!!
There are times when a woman just needs to be with her sewing machine.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! You seem to be well and truly making up for lost time!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back Annette, I miss you <3
ReplyDeleteYou've come back in style with those beautiful quilts. Great work.
ReplyDeleteI love my sewing machine too - funny how some people prefer doing everything by hand, huh? Perfect quilt for your new baby - costumes are fun to make and they can use them for dress up after Halloween!
