WIP 7/8

[cam]

What are you working on? Have you finished anything? Care to show off anything?

I got all the pieces made for an extension table for my sewing machine, just need to assemble, hopefully tonight yet. I made pattern pieces for a skirt, washed the fabric, and just picked up the thread, so ready to dive in. I started and finished several toy baggies, plus have several more cut and ready for sewing. I altered a couple shirts. I took measurements for the next-in-line project. I even managed to do a tiny bit of crochet work on another dish cloth. That's pretty good progress for me.

Ahhhhh I actually have progress!

I made my double fold bias tape and pinned it into my tree skirt. I made two sets of ties too, and they are all set to be pinned and sewn in once the binding is attached. Then I'm finally done my tree skirt!!

I think I'll be able to finish the blanket!! My deadline is the end of the month. Only 9 more squares, then weaving ends, sewing them together, and crocheting the border. Uffda. I can do it though!

I'm hemming pants. I really need to take the patterns pieces for the quiet book pages and cut the felt. I might even get crazy and sew them.

I did make the dice I needed for my guided math centers and started working on bulletin boards.

I love seeing all the projects getting done.

sunfrogger88 I'm intimidated by making bias tape. Yours looks great.

It's been a busy-with-other stuff kind of week, but, I did get another zipper bag sewn up (so quick), cut out some tote bags for the kids' library books (we need better organization there), and used the 3d printer for some more clay cutters.

I also finally got around to ordering Heather Ross's print book (comes with JPGs of many of her prints) and a pigment based ink jet to try out.

Thanks! It's so easy, just time consuming. I have yet to master the shortcut way to cut it. It probably takes me two hours but I try to make it from a yard of fabric when I do make it, so I can build a stash. And I totally prefer using handmade bias tape over store bought. It adds a special touch

Finished product!

I finished a set of coasters (think modge podge) and a yarn wreath (like this) I finished really late last night so the glue was still wet.


I detest bias tape. I have the most horrid time with it when ever a pattern calls for it.

[sunfrogger88]

Ooh I have another project!

Like I said in randoms my best friend is home and taught me how to make a burlap wreath. Here's mine!!! It looks great on our front door I'm so proud!
