I have made some small wheat sacks- hand hotties, and some bunting in lovely Christmas fabrics. All going to the Christmas fair at school.

Mrs Webmuppet Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Little Miss Webmuppet and I went to a kids sewing workshop at Quilters Haven this morning ............we now have a witch complete with her favorite frog. LMW did a lot of the work herself ( I only did the finishing touches as they were too fiddly for her little fingers) Photo will follow when I can get Mr W away from his Ukulele!

Couperwife Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 fantastic witch was it a pattern? or was it a "make it up as you go along?" its lovely cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Webmuppet Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 It was a kit, the kids had to cut out the pattern and then cut the pieces out of ready prepared fabrics and sew it all together. I still have the pattern & could always copy it & email it, if anyone wants it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarbaraJ Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Oh dear that didnt go well , i made a lovely pair of shoes with snowflake baby wool but the jacket was fine until i had to knit an edging in double knit onto the chunky wool first i couldn't get as many stitches as they wanted into edge, in the end i had to bin it as it wouldn't undo back to the crochet lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Wow so many postings - my naughty notifications haven't been working on a couple of threadsies. Christian that's a lovely long sausage that you made - I rather fancy the door too! Today I took DS to a job interview along with a basket with my quilting bits so that I could occupy myself while I waited (the other day I started drawing trees in the car park - lovely day and very inspiring surroundings). All was going fine until I got a tangle in the thread - in spite of me using Sewer's Aid. OK, easily undone then worked to finish the thread, new one up and running. SNAP! Needle broke! I think I wore out the eye somewhat! So 20 minutes later twiddling my thumbs and scoffing peppermints he comes out. Moral of the story - next time I will have a spare needle or two with my bits and bobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
