I have been waiting for today for 2 weeks! Son was at nursery until half 3 so I had 6 hours - bliss! By 9 oclock this morning I was already feeling shattered with him. Boisterous is just not the word! For instance... I am ashamed to admit that we were evicted from a childs soft play centre last weekend, I mean really! A childs soft play centre? Darling son was on a hitting frenzy of every boy he could try and get the attention off! He was play fighting, it just didnt occur to him they A, thought he was a baby B, was busy playing with their friends and C, didnt like being hit, no matter how playful. The manager said very politely we should call it a day, mind you, we had been there over 3 hours.
Anyway! Did all the usual boring household stuff yesterday so today was a solid sewing day. I finished off the ipad case a friend asked me to do, then packaged and even could peel off a stamp from another envelope - thrifty ay? Promptly forgot to take a pic of the completed item, Sugar Honey Ice Tea!!! Altho not perfect, I was so pleased with the finished result, could kick myself. Def going to make up some more with a view to adding to the crofts stock. Anyway, im sure she will send some pics when its received, I even handsewed her name into the inside front band, and used velcro - woooooo! lol
Anyway, I then completed a childs high chair seat recover, was an interesting project as had ties to the sides and bottom and was a seat and back piece so shapes were odd, managed to do ok, have to wait and see what the 'customer' thinks (who is actually is a friend of a friend). Just finished some fabric letters to hang on the wall as well. Have had a few messages via facebook for the hanging hearts, which im pleased about.
The Sewing Croft is a small vintage design studio based in rural Wiltshire, UK. We have a love for Winnie the Pooh, Dr Seuss and Alice in Wonderland. Our love of these wonderful childrens characters not only led to our business but in the collection of hundreds of facts and photos. So, we are re-starting our blog to share everything we have learnt about the ever so funny, Winnie the Pooh.
