WOYWW...

These weeks seem to be flying by don't they?....Or is it just me?

There is never a dull moment over here at Sewing by Annie's.

What with......
  • minding the Grandees
  • sewing for my ever growing numbers of customers
  • planting out a few bedding plants and weeding in the garden
  • planning and preparing for the building work to start
  • time to do some creative sewing
  • a shopping trip to Ikea
  • dressmaking for myself
  • oh and of course cooking, cleaning and general housework too :-)
Here's just a few quick pics to share with you...




My latest piece of crazy patchwork using some of my fav fabrics....well you do don't you when you're sewing for special friends :-)





My latest top I 've made for myself this week....I cut two tops out ages ago but had never found the time to run them up so more on the way some time soon :-)


My 'man that does' putting together my latest purchase from Ikea....it's a 6 drawer cupboard on casters [it's called an Alex] for my new sewing room.  I plan to put all my threads in here so it can be moved to which ever of my 6 machines I'm working at :-).....this girl has been making room plans for the sewing room.....getting soooooooo excited now :-)


That's all from me for this week folks.  Busy busy busy....but nothing new there :-)  Please leave me a little comment to say you've called in and I will pop over to yours as soon as I can.  I'm sorry to say that there are still some of the google+ blogs that I am unable to leave comments on but believe me I do read your blogs.
Hugs,

WOYWW....

Hi folks.  Here we are at another Wednesday when we all link up our creative spaces over at Julia's at the Stamping Ground....if you still don't know what it's all about then pop over there to find out more and join in the weekly fun.

I've had a busy week with my sewing...some for customers but mostly for myself :-)  I've now completed the 4 tops that I cut out a few weeks back...


Here's the three I made this week.....not very good pics sorry.  They are all pintucked down the the fronts [machine sewn for those that asked] and the blue one on the right of the pic even has machine embroidered detail over the pintucks.

Isn't it funny that the warmer fabrics all tend to be plainer, darker and at most with checked patterns.

Because of the lack of colour in the warmer tops I am now enjoying cutting out some summer tops in pretty floral fabrics...this one as you can see is pink and turquoise and at the back of the photo you might be able to see some lilacs, navy and other pretty colours.

Roll on warmer weather eh?

So folks that's it from me for today.  What you been up to this week?  Leave me a little hello comment so I know you've called by and I will pay you a visit to check out what's going on in your work space.  Have a great week.
Hugs,
