twilight23 - 2009-11-26 20:33:00
1647

Hehe Twilight will keep an eye out for a holden sewing machine haha
Just got off the phone with cindydog shes almost settled in ...few things still to do but getting organised. She said she went to spotlight in palmerston north and its huge....shes not buying anything till shes used her stash up, she was just looking.
Oh she should be back in here maybe this weekend, she asked if we could save her some cake haha
Back to sewing for me, talk later. What are you making now Twilight ?

coalrange1 - 2009-11-26 20:48:00
1648

did cindydog wear her blinkers at spotlight, thats good she settling in, sposs shes getting ithcy fingers to start sewing again,
um im sewing some nice evening bags from the beautifull fabric my sister gave me, will put pic up tomorrow, then in doing some crazy patchwork bags i have a really nice pattern, i still have some other things to finsih but its only hand sewing

twilight23 - 2009-11-26 21:30:00
1649

hmmm you are busy as usual, the evening bags sound lovely.
Im still sewing 1 1/2 inch strips together....it was my choice to make them that small they were s'posed to be 2 1/4. The lady at the fabric shop had done hers this small so will look good. She cut a jelly roll down the centre.
