It's a busy week for sure! Glad you have something to keep you occupied (ahem!) take care and happy WOYWW Helen #1
Always amazed how much you get done in limited time Annie. Good luck getting everything done this week too and enjoy the grandmother duties too. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #5
Great work Annie. Wonder woman again! This week I will be mostly watching tennis when I have done all my work! x x Jo
You really are prolific! I love that you just get on with it, the procrastination gene in me would have the factory trouser zips very very low on any list! My sis made me buy a pair of linen palazzo pants that now need work...they aren't too long in the leg, but need rolling over at the waist which just makes me mad...why on earth didn't I notice that when I tried them on. Argh, too short in the body. Again!
I should think Grandma duties are like a rest after all those trousers again. Have a lovely woyww. Hugs, Angela x9x
I never thought about how you’d alter a jumpsuit before cos there are bits that would have to remain the same! Well done on a busy week, the trouser zips would be thrown out of the JanCave window I’m afraid, lol!! Hope you enjoy your nanny duties!!

Wow! October sounds so far away and yet . . . you'll soon be cheering. I hope you have warned the trouser person so they can find a new tailor . . .
Hope your week works out as you want

My goodness you have been busy. Enjoy you Grandma duties. Happy WOYWW. Angela #12
I'm always impressed with what you accomplish in a week. Sounds like you won't be slowing down until October. I applaud you for replacing zippers. I put ONE in a skirt I was making and that was enough for me. Never again sewing them. I used 2 sided tape to add one to an altered book and even that was a chore! You are my sewing hero. Happy WOYWW from # 2.
Looks like it has been busy and still is busy and is going to be busy for a while yet.
Enjoy some you time too please.

we were out and about earlier then entertainment in the park. The guy who sang at our wedding was the vocalist of the evening. He does a lot of 60's Elvis etc Always like the projects you share, but you can almost do bears in your sleep? They are a treasure, and they are doing it up this way also. Happy to hear you has time to get away and enjoy the travels. Have a fun week
