Its the long weekend and after a blitz of cleaning I took the opportunity to drag out my sewing machine.
It was a little cantankerous for a while and the thread kept on breaking - duh - every now and then you have to change over the needle. That done and everything went swimmingly after that.
I have finally managed to make those baby bibs that I printed material for a few weeks ago.
They are really bright arent they? I just have to buy some velcro for fasteners and then they are done.
I had enough for three geometric patterned bibs and two of the bright green circular patterns.
I used a small amount of the blue circular print to make a fabric bucket. Some how or rather I managed to fluke the measurements of the circle to match the length of fabric to fit the circumference - pretty happy about that! I imagine I could have looked up a pattern but it was kind of an impulse thing to make.
And that is how I spent my afternoon. Went for an evening walk up over the hill, my first since having a cold. I still seem to be breathless on exertion but at least I only cough occasionally. One of the girls at work told me yesterday that a patient described me as the tall funny nurse with a cough like a dogs bark... That says it all.
