Proud of myself



Yesterday I completed a knitting project that I must have started around 5 years ago!! I love knitting, but never really enjoy the sewing up, which is strange as I love sewing..hmmmmmm.

Anyway here comes Santa Claus right down Santa Claus lane :)

I was in London on Friday at Hard Rock Calling and had fashioned myself a wee bag for the occasion using cut off's from my partners trousers. The patch I've put on has been embroidered-my first ever attempt- with a logo from a Pearl Jam album, whom were headlining.

Update

I have been soooo ill with the cold. However feeling much better.

I have been sewing....nothing that will impress anyone but me, but its been fun. I'm at my partner's house just now though, so I don't have my camera cable to upload any pics.

I just wanted to pop in and say hello.

Tomorrow is my last day at the primary school volunteering. The next time I'm in a school I will be on placement learning how to be a teacher. Can't wait, roll on August!!

I've been sewing like crazy - yay. As I'm starting teacher training in August, I volunteer at a local school and they are doing an assembly on tudor times. I've been re-jigging costumes from their store to fit the theme. I'm getting lots of practice which must be good. I also have cut my pieces for the quilt top so looking forward to getting the sewing machine out for that.


BIG NEWS!! I found my camera aaaaaaaargh!! how exciting. It was in a cleaning products bag and as I'm staying with my parents hadn't cracked it open. I think it must have fell in there before I moved.


I used printouts from freeprettythingsforyou.com to make wee ingredient cards for my handbag notebook, means if I get the urge to bake while in supermarket or anywhere I can double check as i always forget something.
