Hello all. There's been lots going on here at Sewing by Annie's....I've been closed for customers though. We have been having the floors in our kitchen, halls and utility tiled.....our tiler has been busy here all week and yesterday he finished so we now just have to put everything back and put up our new curtains [sadly I think they need shortening].
I decided I needed a little project that I could be busy with and be able to do in what every space I was able to get to and I found...
...this book that had been sat on my sewing room bookshelf for a few years.
It involved making the little rabbit and lots of clothes for every season and each one needed a lot of hand sewing.
Meet, who I've called, Hazel. She's 6" to the top of her head then ears are extra. Her arm and legs are poseable so she can stand and sit.....I've already fallen in love with her.
I've made her a pretty Spring dress and matching ear bows.
Every outfit is fully lined and uses hand and machine sewing so I've used the machine when I could get in my sewing room and then I've put all the pieces in a basket and taken it all to the living room to hand sew.
I also made her the hand embroidered coat and bonnet.
She also has a lovely pair of pyjamas.
There are several other projects in the book to make so it may well be an ongowing project and Hazel just might have little adventures that I can share with you all.
I hope you have enjoyed seeing what I've kept myself busy with and, if you leave me a little message to say you've called in I will pop over to yours to see what you've been up to.
Hugs,
Annie x
