First week of my sons summer vacation from school so working is a bit on and off. Tuesday morning I started my work-day with sewing 2 sleeves together instead of on the front and back piece. Wednesday, I tried to sew a border without having thread in the machine. And the worst part was, took me a minute to figure it out why there was no seam. 🤣
Guess worrying about a friend, and having your head in all different places than it should, and some lack of sleep, does that to you!
But, I keep going! I always say that the seam ripper is the seamstresses best friend! Yep yep!

Now, my biggest problem with taking pictured for the site is, the thing I am taking a picture of needs to lay flat, but it is not meant to be flat. Babies and toddler are anything but flat. So I kind of gave up making the pictures here fantastic, because I don’t want to use AI. Better natural than fake in my opinion. Do you agree?

Like the picture above. It looks very wide but when you put a baby in there, it is not so wide anymore. Thoughts?

So, what do you think. Can handmade diaper covers make a comeback? They are cute, handy and can come in whatever color you like. I have had this pattern from when my son was little, drew off some old ones I had around. It is great for the summer when you might want to have the babies only in a diaper, but then you can have this on top of the diaper and suddenly they are dressed!

Finally! Off me and Marie went to look and feel on fabrics. I found 2 fabrics for my son (look at the picture) and I bought the tracing paper that I needed. Marie found a cute fabric for her dogs pillow. But the major things was, WE were out among OTHER people! For the first time in what feels like forever! Had to show our vaccination app when going for a coffee but that was all. No restrictions or anything!

Stoffenspektakel is back! Wooooo! A big fabric market that I used to visit every time it came to Rotterdam, is back! In Ahoy, on FRIDAY!! Wooooo! *dances around* Yes, I am planning on going there while my son is in school on Friday!

And yes, been working a bit this weekend. When your neighbor asks for help, you cant say no. Not even for curtains!

Well, it has been quite a while since I last wrote here. The main reason is that the webpage service I had was SUPER slow and stuff like creating post didn’t work very well. So it took away all the joy of sharing my thoughts and creations away. But!!! Now I have “moved” service so I am back! Added some items in the shop last night and will add them on Facebook today or tomorrow. Here is what I have worked with since I last blogged:

Follow me on facebook or insta for updates almost every day! I will post here at least once a week though 🙂

So, here are this weeks creations! Hats hats hats!!!! Plenty of HATS! For a gaming friend, for my sons teachers and some friends. Hats everywhere!

Also, I made a small forest of Christmas trees, pattern from #patternsforpirates
