It has been so HOT here that I have not been doing much in the furniture department...My Paint literally crackles when it hits the surface of what I am painting...THAT IS JUST TOO HOT!!!
AND ME BEING THE KIND WHO CAN'T STAY STILL...SMILES... I have been keeping myself busy INDOORS...
I got out all my sewing stuff and my faithful Brother Machine, when through all my fabric and got to CREATING!!
my gramma gave me her sewing box...I filled it up!! |
I had loads of fabric, YOU CAN ALWAYS USE FABRIC!!! I also had to get out there and find some of the new patterns...GOT TO HAVE THOSE BRIGHT COLORFUL PATTERNS YOU KNOW!!..
I decided to make a trash bag for my Tahoe...and when I was finished with it... I just kept on making them..BIG BIG SMILES... I found I am loving sewing again!!! Thank goodness, because like I said IT IS TOO HOT OUTSIDE!!!
I made some Razorback bags, (our college mascot) and some high school Mascot bags and of course BRIGHT BRIGHT COLORFUL ONES....
I made the straps adjustable with button holes so that you can hang them from somewhere in the front or on the headrest to hang in the back...You know those babies are MESSY!!
I have a LARGE Button Collection!!
I JUST COULD NOT STOP...I MADE MY OWN LABEL!!! SMILES
I did this with some transfer paper, a Iron and some Ribbon...
I have found that ironing on an old piece of cloth on top of the washer or dryer...works the best...Do Not Use the Ironing Board to make these labels...
Additional items that I love to use when sewing...I love these scissors...they save my hands..
I also like these type of pins...they are very thin and long..I would not suggest them on bulky fabric, it might bend them...but for this cotton...they work great!!
And if you do much sewing...this little gadget is a must!! It saves so much time when ironing a set measurement...like hems, or curtains...etc...
And finally my little travel kit...I use this so much I cannot even imagine not having it...it is just the right size for tread, ripper, needles, scissors..MY SEEING GLASSES!!!WINK, WINK...whatever you might need for the project you are currently working on...and it even has another attachment for more space...
Well that about sums it up for now...I have more projects I am working on and will share soon...I promise...Don't forget about me...I AM STILL HERE!!!! BIG SMILES...
