You’d never believe it, I swear  
But I’m sewing a bikini to wear
To swim at the pool
But I’m no bodies fool…
My shape will cause quite a scare!

The holiday season draws near

Jaimielaura: Yay! Congrats on your new toy!

Thankyou ladies! This one will have mummy made things from day one.

I did the buttonholes and the buttons on the little white bubble this morning before the usual Saturday run around (and I was treated to lunch by the hubby as a belated birthday and a thanks to our worker for helping this harvest which incidentally has quite completed for us). So…[Read more]

If you go to patternreview.com there is a section that reviews coverstitch machines so you can read what owners have to say.

Honeymadeit thankyou! There is a nice little collection happening but it isn’t quite done yet. I have five items to sew up and only six 0-3 month tags left!!
