Adventures in Sewing
I purchased a purse pattern the other day thinking it might an easy project for Christmas gifts. Of course, I had to test out the pattern first =)
I made it out of material I had at home, the inside is from a pillowcase, and the outside is an undyed fabric. I am pretty happy with how it turned out, although I definitely could use some more practice, it’s not quite as sooth as it should be in some places. I also need to figure out how to read the patterns…I just kind of tossed them aside about halfway through! Oh well…
On a less complicated note, I gave my daughter some of her birthday gifts early as it is getting pretty cold up here in north Idaho.
The Pokeball hat pattern came from here, the fingerless gloves from here, and the scarf from here. She loved her gifts! She was quite the envy of her friends because of the hat, and she even slept in her gloves the first night! I am so glad that she likes getting handmade gifts, I know I certainly didn’t when I was a kid!
