Christmas morning

What I sewed for Christmas.

Leopard pj pants.

They loved them.

Not getting much done.

I have not been doing much sewing lately.

But really need to get started.

Christmas is coming you know!!

I started a list.

And I promised to make halloween costumes.

I made these batman pj's for my grandson the other day. 

Then I had a pair of ladies pj's that needed mending.

The tie at the waist had ripped all the fabric

and I didn't know how to fix them.

They had been laying in the sewing room since last January.

So I just cut them into a small pair for my grandson.

Now I don't have to worry about fixing them anymore!!



  

A new purse.

Well, actually I made it a few years ago and

I decided I needed a new purse so I dug this one out.

It is made of suede upholstery fabric and

I did some embroidery on it.

I had actually made for a craft show and it never sold.

So I might as well use it.



A "BOO" halloween t-shirt.

Just for fun.



More sleepwear

Here is the next pattern I sewed.

I made a few changes.

I made the yoke double

and did a small embroidery on it.

Then I bound the armhole with bias strips.

The pattern had lace on the neck and armhole edges.

But lace can be itchy sometimes.

 Here is a close up of the yoke and embroidery. 

Can you see it?

Ok, I think it is time to do some clean ups in the sewing room

before I start my next project.

Spiderman

My daughter and I went shopping for fabric and patterns

to make Rebecca some body suits for gymnastics.

Christian came with us because he is only 4.

He did not want to go it the fabric store.

He was making a fuss and giving us pouty face.

But then he found some Spiderman fabric.

We left the store with him clutching his fabric.

So now he has Spiderman pjs.

A Birthday Gift

Jessica is invited to a birthday party.

So she came to me and asked,"Grandma, could you make

some purple pajamas that say I heart Justin Bieber?  My

friend really likes him, and could they be purple?"

So here is what I make.

Now I really need to get inspired to start sewing again.

And I'm afraid Justin Bieber doesn't do it for me!!

Oh well.  Anything for the kids, eh!

Using fabric in my stash.

I wanted to make another skirt with tulle.

I found this in my stash.

Thought this red plaid would look Christmasy.

Added some lace around the ruffle.

I will be taking the skirts to the craft market on Saturday.

See what kind of response I get.

More pjs for the craft market on Saturday.

Dinosaurs

Cats in squares.

Lady bugs on purble dots.
