NO BIAS... JUST ZIG ZAG!

Would you spend hours cutting out material on the bias, then sewing it all together then spend hours more trying to sew it on your bloody seahorse, around all those twists and turns??? Well Would Ya?

I'M NOT! Stuff that. I am going to do a wide, tight zig zag instead, in black of course... I am sure it will look just fine. I hope my tutor does not spit the dummy at me! But really, why go to all that trouble when a zig zag will do the job?

So, that's what I am going to be doing today, once I have the kids to school and some housework done.
Should be fun.
Should keep me out of the kitchen/fridge/pantry.
Should.....
WILL!
So there.

When I need a break I will pop back here and check on a few blogs ....
ONWARD....



ABOVE: I have changed the Whiteboard 'Wish List'... see Stew! I am even being realistic... my Birthday isn't till October! *smiles*

Vacuming is all done, house is spic and span.. time to go sew....

  8. Yeah, I was having some "technical difficulties" with my blog, but all is good now.

    I have been reading along with you, for months and months. First, good on you for going back to WW... something I have been *meaning* to do for so long now. Also, your sewing and other creative project as just amazing. You are beyond clever! I really admire that, and your energy/motivation.... can you bottle some and post it to me? xxx
