Sewing

 

I made cushion covers!

 

I had the red gingham fabric left over from a previous (un-started) project. I made four covers, as you can see.  They are paisley on one side and gingham on the other.  So pretty ....

This is my new toy.  I have wanted a sewing machine for ages and saw this on offer in a  magazine.  It was too good a price to ignore.

          It's fab - very easy to use. My memories of sewing machines are from tedious textiles lessons when I was about 14 and this is a world away from that - fortunately!

      I also made the panels for the new wardrobe in our younger daughter's bedroom. Only problem was that I sewed the Velcro on the wrong side - duh - still, unpicking and re-sewing it, did give me more practice.

They look much nicer in real-life!

So that is her room completely finished. 

Just have to decorate and re-carpet our older daughter's room now.
