Sewed up two circle skirts for the girls today. I used fold-over elastic for the waistbands. I had bought some awhile back thinking I’d use them to make diaper covers for the baby, but he no longer uses the type of diapers that require covers. I really should have waited until the girls got home to put the elastic on the skirts, though – although I know their waist measurements, the stretchiness of elastic varies and I usually have to fit it to them. I know they won’t be too small, though, so in the worst case the skirts can be worn next year (as the FOE will be a pain to unpick).
I still have two cut out Izzy Tops but I was sick and feeling queasy when I sewed the second one, so now looking at the two remaining ones actually makes me queasy. Does anyone else have weird nausea-associations? I get them all the time – what ever I am doing or watching or reading while nauseated, makes me nauseated in the future when I do it again.
