WOYWW...

 Hello all.  I hope you're all well and happy and the weather has been kind to you.

I managed to finish the lovely bears I was making last week when you called in...


They look so lovely with their tags and these three mean I just need to make 16 more to reach 1000.









I have made 4 peg bags using some material that Jan sent us to use for the charity and then made...





...three little popper purses and...




.....three glasses cases.
These were the ones I had cut out last week.






Since then I cut out 8 glasses cases using this gorgeous owl fabric...I thought the little owls lent themselves to glasses cases and hope they sell well for the charity.





We have enjoyed making this jigsaw that Maxine gave us for Christmas and have now passed it on to Jo to do....and Jo gave us the sunflower one they did.









That's all from me for this week.  If you leave me a little message I will do my best to pop over to yours...I didn't get to everyone last week because I had to have a wisdon tooth out on Thursday and it knocked me about a bit so I've been recovering all week....I guess we don't heal as quickly as we get older.  I hope to do better this week.
Hugs,

WOYWW.....

 It's been another busy week here at Sewing by Annie's.....I'm never sat idle :-)  

I've shortened trousers, lifted a dress at the shoulders and have altered the bodice on a pretty lemon bridesmaid dress.  On top of that I have been sewing for the H J trust.....


The little piles of fabrics I put on my blog last week became 6 pretty patchwork bibs and when I put them on my Facebook page I had orders for 3 of them so.....


....I made some more and here you can see them all sitting on top of my new little ironing board that my darling hubby fitted to the top of my new Raskog cart that we bought from Ikea this week.

I love my new little trolley....it's so handy to iron the smaller items I am busy with and it's storing my projects that I have on the go.


I've also made 6 new peg bags [there's two in each colour] because one of my customers asked for some to give as presents....it all helps to raise the funds for the charity :-)




That's all from me for this week.  I hope you're all fit, well and happy and I will pop over to see what you're up to as soon as I can.
Hugs,

WOYWW....

 Where do these weeks go?  It doesn't seem 5 mins since last Wednesday....I guess that's a sign that I've had a busy week.

I have...

  • Made 5 peg bags....and sold two of them as soon as they were finished.
  • Made 3 aprons  [ I have handed over the peg bags and aprons with the little frogs and another strip quilt to Harry Johnson Trust and forgot to snap them before they went ].
  • Shortened a pair of jeans to make them into shorts
  • Shortened 3 layers on the hems of a wedding dress and made and inserted panels under the arms to let them out [a very tricky job, needing a lot of patience but thankfully now finished].
  • Shortened a dress and shortened the sleeves so it's now a short sleeved dress.
  • and.....


I was asked to make some more hair scrunchies for the charity so I made 16.
I am still to make more glasses cases and some bags :-)
I had a good catch up with Sally who runs the Harry Johnson Trust on Saturday and it was good to find out what had sold and what she needed more of.





That's all from me for today.  I hope you're all fit, well and happy.  If you leave me a little message to say you've called in I will do my best to pay you a visit to see what's on your desk today.
Hugs,
Annie x
