It's a Saturday and so I should have been feeling refreshed and raring to create ... but I didn't. This probably had something to do with staying up until 0130 this morning watching a film I had seen before -
- so why oh why did I stay up WAY past my bedtime to watch it?? And, because my eyes are used to opening at 0600 every day, that's what they did this morning ... despite having only been closed for 4 ½ hours ... that'll learn me!!
So, I decided not to attempt anything difficult. Hoping I'll be 'awake' enough tomorrow to have a go at Trish Preston's cute bag. But I did make something new! I saw this post for this handy sewing machine 'accessory mat' ages ago but have just not got around to making it. TODAY was the day!
Isn't it lovely?
And thanks to this You Tube upload from Connecting Threads, I've finally made something with 'properly finished binding'.
Oh, and of course, SHE had to join me ... that's my Dad's Quilt she's got her bottom on, the little madam:
And a dear friend came around to say 'hi' with some lovely daffodils (they weren't really for your Mum for Mother's Day, hey?!) so not a bad day after all ;)
Thanks for the link, I spied this piece of gorgeousness in another post and thought I need one of those, I already have a sewing machine mat but NEED one of these. Now what fabric to use..... :)
