Over the last month...

My brither and sister in law came to visit in April, this was a real treat. I have not seen them since before christmas and the kids simply were over the moon. It was a short but very sweet holiday. We shall miss them very much and hope to see them soon. 



On my sewing table has been this trial run of the Colette Iris shorts pattern, which I really like. The pattern is well written and has a invisible zipper (which I am teaching the students to do this term, hence my shorts trial) and my image of my garment really does not to this justice. I increased the lenth of it (it originally had a 4.5" inseam, eeek) and now is a better suited to me 8" which does change the pattern from slinky shorts to mummy shorts. Sigh. I will add a better picture soon.


I was determined to make a dent in my sewing list. Master A,picked out some fabric for himself a few months ago and wanted me to make a shirt out of it for him and here is my offering to him. I winged it and did a size 7 which was very very genenrous and I think he will have to grow into this!  I used Kwik sew 2951 and it really sewed up really quickly. 
I love the guitar printed fabric!
And finally I have been crafting more with Miss T and she was interested in screen printing so...
Ta Daa... am not sure what we will do with this but am sure it will make it into their room soon :)
Am working on sewing kits next, these are different and I think quite special... more on that later...
