Terriamn, My husband put so many bird feeders around our yard that bird seed is now a line item in our budget and we have about 20 sunflowers growing up around the bird feeders.
I was hoping to get my grandson’s quilt done before the squishy arrived but that’s not happening. I’m doing cool feathers on one border and I’ve only got one of the four borders done. I think about 10 more hours should finish that quilt. I’m a very slow sewist.
I also made a princess seamed top, but I’ m waiting on the buttons to arrive. I’m going to try a singer machine someone gave me to make the buttonholes. I’ve never been able to get my Janome to make five good buttonholes in a row. I had to do a lot of alterations on that pattern to get it to fit right. I had to make a muslin, practice garment, out of old sheets before I was willing to cut into my nice fabric.
I downloaded a German pattern for a double layered skirt. It’s pretty easy and I’ll make it tomorrow. (That will probably take me two days
. ). I’m making music festival clothes right now and it’s pretty fun. Mostly purple.
I hope everyone is healthy and ready to sew. I’ve been doing much more sewing than usual and can’t wait to get your fabric.
