A busy working mum who always tries to find time to create something, sewing, crotchet, knitting or food, there's always something going on. I love to read, enter competitions, listen to music and spend time with my family.

Scarf for Thomas
The kids wanted me to make a scarf for them so I have unpacked the needles and duted off my fingers and got to work on a simple scarf for each of them. I've finished the first one and he loves it!!!

Todays project
After a week of not doing much towards my planned projects, other than fabric shopping I have finally felt like trying one of them. Having only started back into sewing in the last couple of months I am trying easier things (supposedly) but keep getting carried away.
Today I decided I was finally going to make my clothes peg apron that I have been talking about for so long. I was getting tired of the kids throwing my pegs around the back yard and leaving them to get dirty!
I adapted a pattern that I found on the web and am pretty happy how it has turned out, aside from a few wonky stitch lines! Would you believe that the bias binding is probably 30 years old, I found it in my mum's stash I forgot I had and she has been gone for over 20 years!
I picked out the front panel fabric last week at Spotlight as it just screamed out to me "Apron"
Here it is!
