WOYWW...

 It's been a busier week here at Sewing by Annie's.  I've took in several pairs of trousers and shortened them and I altered the shoulders on a posh frock for a Mother of the Groom.



I have also made this very special Memory Bear made from a wedding dress.  The dress had been cut up for several different projects but thankfully there was enough to make a bear from and the front of the bear was made from the front panel off the dress.  It was rather tricky to make but it was worth the effort because my customer loved it.




In my free time I have managed to make these 12 popper purses for the charity and then.....


.....I used some of the new fabrics that I may have bought on Saturday while we were on a little adventure in Shrewsbury.

I made 7 little carrot bags that are now waiting for some chocolate mini eggs to fill them.

I'm sure these will sell well for the charity.




That's all from me for this week.  I do have more trousers to alter today so I will do my best to pay you a visit in between my jobs.  

I believe Neet is now back home so I hope she is feeling much better now.  Sending her lots of love.

 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...

 Each week seems to be busy for me at the moment...basically because I choose to fill it with exciting sewing...some of which I can share with you.





I finished the boy's cuddly blankets that I had cut out on my desk last week...the fleece for the backing arrived, the colour was perfect and has made really snuggly blankets for them both.




I have since made 8 poppered purse/card holders to put Christmas money in for the Grandchildren ....most of them have requested money this year :-)

On top of all that I have had a steady flow of customers and today will be making 2 more Memory bears so may be a little late in commenting this week.

 Hi all. I hope you've all had a great week...I have thankfully :-)  I've had a few customers this week but have still managed some quality time sewing for charity.



I've managed to get buy some more cotton tape and finished off making the bunting I was making and it's all bagged up ready to sell [and I've even sold a couple of lengths ].



I then cut out and made 8 reversible bags each having a pocket on the inside and another on the outside.



Next I made 9 little popper purses...each are wadded with bondable fleece and I will probably make a few more in different colourways at some point because I really enjoyed making these.





I have also cut out a batch of glasses cases so they may be my next job....can you tell I'm having fun?

I will be round to visit as many desks as I can to see what you've all been up to this week....hope you're all well and happy.

Hugs,

Annie x
