Hello all. I was missing last week, basically because I had nothing to show you. I had virtually no customers at all over the Easter holidays....I missed it but enjoyed the break and refilled my batteries. This was meant to be because since Monday morning I have...
- Shortened 3 skirts
- Shortened a prom dress
- Made 2 Memory bears
- Shortened 2 pair of trousers for one customer
- Shortened 6 pair of trousers for another customer
Today I have 2 pair of trousers to shorten for one of my regular customers and 2 Bridesmaid dresses to shorten and I also have 3 more Memory bears coming. It really is all or nothing here at Sewing by Annie's
This is my to do rail...the pale green and the brown dresses are the bridesmaid dresses. The navy dress on the right is the prom dress.
There are 2 of the pair of jeans hanging on my rail and the other 8 pairs are folded in their bags....so I have bags of clothes everywhere in my room....it's organised chaos :-)
These are the two Memory bears I've made....using a much loved man's favourite shirt and jumpers.
Finally I have these two little knitties to show you. While I was enjoying my Easter break I fancied doing a little bit of knitting....I say little bit because arthritic hands and knitting don't really go together.
I found these tiny 4" characters on Pinterest and bought the pattern on line....then couldn't find where it had downloaded to!! I wasted half the morning finding it then searched for the right sized needles and could only find one!! Eventually found the second needle and then looked for the right colours of wool....they have pale pink faces because I couldn't find any cream!! Do you think something was trying to tell me I shouldn't be knitting?
Eventually [after lots of cramp in my hands!!] I managed to create a little Louie in his Spiderman jumper and a little Theo with a stripey jumper with a T on the front. The boys really loved them so my labour of love was well worth it.
That's all from me for this week. I hope you've all had a great week. If you leave me a little message I will do my best to pay you a visit ASAP.
Hugs,
Annie x
