WOYWW....

Hi folks.  Happy Wednesday to you all.

I have more sewing to show you today....cos that's what I do :-)



This was my sewing machine area yesterday while I was making a throw to go across the bottom of Shell's bed for her...it's what you do when you have already shortened the curtains for them and have enough fabric to make a matching bed throw :-)


 Shell even let me put her new throw on her bed and snap it so I could show you it all finished.  It really looks fab and completes the look too.



It's been a week of sewing for the bedroom.  Here is one of our quilt covers that I have given a new life to.  The panel that went across the top of the quilt was in a fabric that my dry hands kept catching on [they get like sandpaper at times!] and it kept waking me up in the middle of the night so it had to go.  The quilt cover was fairly new so far too good to throw out so I have replaced the panels with a pretty turquoise cotton fabric and of course the pillows now have matching panels too  :-)...it all needs a good press now but I'm rather chuffed with the results.  :-)





Thanks for calling by today and for all the lovely comments you leave.  I will do my best to pop over to yours as soon as possible to say hello so do let me know you've called by.
Hugs,
Annie x

Latest update and a request .....

Wahooooooo Curtains are done and my 'to do' rail is now empty so look what I've done since.....


These are the latest 4 little dresses for Africa to be finished. I have 3 more cut out and ready to be sewn so should soon have ten finished  :-)  I know these 4 are all the same but it was pretty fabric and I'm sure there will be lots of little girls out there that really won't mind.  

I shall be on the look out for more suitable pillow cases or quilt covers when the last 3 are made up.  If anyone out there has pretty spare pillow cases that still have plenty of life left in the fabric and would be willing to donate them to the cause I am happy to run a few more up so please email me for details of where to post them to.    Never an idle minute here.....[it keeps me out of mischief.]
