Sewing - Part 3...

Sewing this week, results in reverse.  It's being worn as its being made so I've not managed to get photos before it goes into the wash!
I thought I had broke the machine over Christmas, I was making wellie liners out of old Ikea blankets and for reasons unknown after 2pairs the machine just started playing up.  Wouldn't sew and made a heck of a racket!
After spending a lot of time fiddling with it, rather than launch it through the terrace windows in a hissy fit I put it safely in the cupboard.  Safe n sound.

Took it out this week, thought I'd have a twiddle with the buttons, lo and behold it's started working! YAY!!

First to show you then...
a simple little dress in the gorgeous Sandi Henderson - Farmers Market - Apple Dot


Loopy likes it, although it's not as twirly as she'd like and has put in a request for a peasant/twirly type of skirt.
Photo's of parts 1 & 2 coming up in the next couple of days!

Sewing machine is back in the cupboard and the crochet hook is flashing like a silver bolt in an effort to finish off a project a gift for my MIL.

Thanks for popping by...I love to hear from you and really appreciate you taking the time.
I am sorry about having to ask you to prove you're not a robot but for some reason I am having a LOT of spam nowadays {and we're not talking fritters!}
