Hello to all my WOYWW friends. Here's hoping Neet it still going on well and is able to join us now and then....we miss you lots.
I've had a week of folk coming out of the woodwork wanting sewing done for Weddings, Proms, Memory bears and everyday clothing....my diary is fast filling.
This is one of the bridesmaid dresses that I have done this week. I had to take it up on the shoulders so that needed little gathers putting in the tops of the capped sleeves once the amount was taken out .....lots of keyhole surgery done and it was a very fiddly job but it was worth it because the finished job was lovely.
I also had to shorten the hems of the 3 layers of the skirt....all 13 metres of them!!
In between my sewing jobs I have knitted my first twiddle mitt while watching the telly....thanks Jo for the instruction. I've found knitting with chunky wool on large needles so much kinder on my arthritic hands and have really enjoyed making it...so much so that I have now started number two.
I'm not the only one to have enjoyed some telly this week. Peggy really loves David Attenborough's Secret Garden programme....she sits like this every time one of the animals comes on screen :-)
This is all from me for this week. If you leave me a little message I will call by to see what You've been up to this week.
Hugs,
Annie x
