Nine new projects (um, no, just recounted, it’s thirteen)
Oh wow, I really meant it when I took that Handmade pledge (see button in sidebar) this Christmas! I have NINE THIRTEEN (I just recounted and had missed four) projects cut out ready to make. And that’s not all I need to make!
Whatever was I thinking? How many weeks left until Christmas? It’s been a cutting out marathon, and now I have a LOOOOONG list of notions to buy today so that I can get to work on these (you know, zips, more interfacing, buttons, thread, etc etc etc). I reckon that when making bags I spend more on the wadding, interfacing, zips, clips etc than I do on the fabric!
Speaking of fabric, this lot arrived this week (edited to add: from Z&S Fabrics again).
At this rate of online shopping I will have to return to work from maternity leave earlier than I’d like!
oooo that fabric looks yummy, where did you purchase it from?
It looks like you will be busy for a while with all those projects….hopefully you can post a few up and not spoil the surprise!
Ohhhh! Good luck! Looks like you’ve got some fabulous fabrics to work with, so have fun!
Oh, and I’ve just linked you to my blog, so that way I can easily check in to see how you’re going regularly 😉
You GO, girl!! Sew like you’ve never sewed before!!!
Re: Wadding – what weight do you use? 630 or 620? I’m thinking about getting a roll of 630 in.
…oh dear… I shouldn’t have clicked on that link to Z&S Fabrics…. I’m now expecting a rather large shipment of fabrics from them!
Hi Nikki – I use the 630. It’s just thick enough to add support and shape without adding too much bulk. Let me know if you get a roll in 😉
Gotta love those fabrics! You have excellent taste!
