Wow, is it really Thursday again? The weeks are passing by so quickly at the moment. I want them to slow down a little.
This week in My Creative Space, there has been lots going on (again) Yay to that, I say!
Of course, more zippered pouches are being made. Always the zippered pouches. I am seriously addicted to making them. I am slowly building up some stock, ready to open my etsy store. Soon, soon, I will get there. I was buzzing last Friday as I sold a total of 7, yes seven, zippered pouches to two separate friends here in Hong Kong. It is such a thrill to see people love your creations.
Abbey is so excited to finally have some wobbly baby teeth. She has watched so many of her friends lose their first, and subsequent teeth. It was not until a few weeks ago that she got her first wobbly tooth, now there are 3 wobbly ones that I can tell. I am secretly making her this cute tooth fairy pillow.
Lastly, I really need to finish this new skirt. One for me! I have had this fabric to make me a skirt for 2 years now. Ridiculous I know. I have been making hair bobbles out of this fabric, but thought I better make my skirt now before there was no fabric left for a skirt.
I am using the pattern New Look 6843, view A. I already have 3 other skirts using this pattern, and I love and wear them all the time. It is very quick and easy to make and very comfortable to wear. This time I adjusted the pattern and tapered in the side seams a little. I actually made it last month, really quickly one night, it was completed apart from the hem and the button hole. I got it in my head I just had to have red ric-rac around the hem, so my new dress has been unfinished until now (I finally got to Sham Shui Po last weekend for the ric-rac)
Today I will sew on this cute little duckie button, and tomorrow I will be wearing my brand new, hand made skirt.
What have you been making?
Have a great day lovelies.
Cat.
