First attempt at flongies

by RachallComment Published at 00:5200:523 comments3 comments27 Visits27 VisitsReport

I need to make them in a size smaller as they are too big for Josh at the moment and also need to make the padding I put in the wetzone go down further and not up so far (doesn't need to be part of the elastic casing  Wink) and remember to have the print the right side up, it is upside down on these  sign10

Hi all

by bittenbythelovebugComment Published at 18:5018:503 comments3 comments263 Visits263 VisitsReport

I learned how to sew in high school and then from watching my mother. She used to be a wardrobe mistress (costume maker) so there was always a sewing project at our place.

I have sewn a few things including bathers for the twins, my marriage proposal banner (yes that's right, I asked him to marry me) and my wedding dress, pijamas for the kids and an activity blanket for a friend who's a nanny.

I want to make each of my kids a quilt or blanket that will last forever, so my next mission is to learn how to patchwork or make quilts. And, I want to teach my 8 yo daughter how to sew...will probably start with a cushion cover. Does anyone know of any good websites that teaches you how to patchwork?

I do love to sew, but never have anything to sew.  So maybe I can get some ideas from you all.

Thanks for the invite. I can sew fairly well but my real passion is tapestries, Crossstiches and wallhangings. I don't have many photos to share as I have given away most of my work or I just havn't taken photos. I will try and find something to show you though

So far...

by RachallComment Published at 18:3318:330 comments0 comments116 Visits116 VisitsReport

...I have made one fitted one-sized nappy and one fitted newborn nappy. I also have another 7 newborn fitted nappies and 3 newborn AIO pockets cut out and ready to sew, just had to stop during the Christmas break due to other priorities. Hope to have them done before the New Year as I only have about 6 weeks to make 24 nappies altogether.

Wish me luck
