Last night, I cut out four pairs of Lil' Britches (sizes Newborn, 18-24 mos, 2T, and 4T) to be sewn for my contribution to my circle's Street Fair booth. I also cut out quilt pieces for Dash's (hopefully) Christmas gift - it'll fit his 'new to him, but otherwise old' full size bed. The quilt pattern is called 'Turning Twenty' ... as in 'turning twenty' fat quarters into a nice quilt. I actually purchased a kit, so I take no responsibility for the fabrics (even though I really like the sports theme and that's the reason I purchased the kit - it fits a boy's room perfectly). Anyway, that was enough for last night.
The quilt is all cut (above) and the Lil' Britches are all cut out, as well (below).
By 7a, I was done with one pair of britches. I took a break to go eat some breakfast and put my puffy feet up for a bit. Then, it was back to sewing.
I finished all four pairs of Lil' Britches by 4p. I took breaks throughout the day to take a nap, put my feet up, eat, and do a bit of laundry. Otherwise, I did nothing but sew. It rained good and steady over the noon hour and into the afternoon, so there was no watering gardens today.
I love the new look over here, the paisley fits you!!
ReplyDeleteWow, those lil britches are so darn cute!! You are so talented, and organized!
Love that climing black eyed susan plant too!
What a great way to spend the day! My mom and I are going to be starting a quilt, using plaid shirts that my step-dad wore. I am sure I'll post about the progress. I am excited, since I've never made a quilt before!!
ReplyDeleteTurning Twenty sounds like so much fun! I actually think I could do it! :)
