My craft room looks more like a dumping ground as I have stacks of pre-washed fabrics ready for projects which I don't have time to do. But, have managed to register as a small business and revamp my web site in the hope that, with a little (lot) of time and effort, I can start making some money. It is that or a normal job, I know which I would prefer (especially since I have no idea what I want to do when I grow up, I really should decide I am 34 in 2 weeks...)!
I have managed to squeeze in a tiny bit of sewing. I sewed a hem!!
I got this pure wool tweed skirt at a flea market last year (£3) and it has been sitting patiently waiting for me to shorten it.
Well, it's time came and, using a skirt I altered last year, I cut it to length, pressed it, then hand sewed the hem. I used to hate hand sewing hems but I actually loved doing this hem and it looks so much better than a machined one.
The skirt looks a longer on than I thought I might shorten it a wee bit more!
Off to schedule my week in my google calendar, that way we might have proper meals this week...!
Love the skirt, the colours are great and it's always nice to finally get just something ticked off the list! The website looks fab! I am very impressed. Hope it goes well! X
ReplyDeleteThat skirt definitely looks better now!
