It's been a while

Hey guys,

Wow, I have been super slack and haven't posted in ages! I was house sitting for a couple weeks after finishing exams and since then have been working full time so my motivation for crafting/sewing hasn't exactly been high. Plus it's been really hot. In other words, I am just a bit too lazy heh.

Btw, I just wanna say thanks for the comments guys! I didn't think anyone was reading my blog but the comments show otherwise and that makes me happy and more motivated to post stuff. So again thank you. =]

Kay, onto the pics! I made a weighted pincushion caddy type thing using this tutorial found here (the tutorial's in pdf format and there's a link to download it underneath her 4th pic if you want to make one yourself =]). It's pretty cool, it's got a bag to hold all your sewing trash (that's removable) and a couple little pockets to put scissors and crap in.


It's way easier than it looks (my sewing skills are relatively basic) but I did screw up the scraps bag (in her pics it's short and squat, mine's long cause I folded the wrong ends together, doh!) but it still works. Here's a view from the top.


And here's a close up of the little pockets you can put stuff in.
And here's a close up picture of the top of it on a slight angle just to be artsy (lol, artistic fail).
So that's that.


I've made an apron for my aunty for Christmas and I'm in the process of making a black/leopard-print one for the bf's mum (will post pics when I finish).

To finish off, a couple pics of my cat Indy for your viewing pleasure.




Take care guys,

San xx
