Getting Creative!

Hello. I thought I would show you a bit of what I have been up to lately, it's been hard to get motivated to sew in this heat and with the school year almost at an end things are very busy. Today Miss 5 had her swimming carnival which was really fun to watch and tomorrow they have their Christmas Concert which I'm really looking forward to. So after the carnival I motivated myself to get a bit of sewing done. I made a couple of applique singlets to give as a Christmas gift for a little baby. This is my first attempt at applique, so I took it slowly and it turned out, yeah! Also I have finished the explorer bags that I mentioned last week on my creative space, where did the week go! And this is what I put inside them, a compass, torch, chocolate and magnifying glass. So on my list of homemade Christmas things to do I still have a crayon roll to make and a bag, so far so good. Anyway I need to get a wriggle on because I still have to finish making a Mars Bar Slice for Miss 10's break up party tomorrow, wrap a present for a teacher and TRY to get to bed before midnight. Catch you later!
