Gettting frustrated!

I'm trying to make a slightly different apron for my Mum, it needs to be more practical because it will get a lots of use (She is a brilliant cook!) So I had a go tonight trying it out. The pocket looks good but then I have been experimenting with bias binding to go around the edge and I think I need more practice on using it as its a bit wonky so i have got  abit frustrated so leaving it for tonight! So I am going to have another practice on my practice one before i make the final one for Mum as she deserves a good one to go with her new kitchen-she's been waiting for it for a lonnnng time!

I'm also having a busy time because I am starting  anew job in September at a different school and I am getting a bit nervous and sad but getting ready for a new challenge!

Pressies!

This week has been manic but I have had time to complete two little projects.

I created a cape for one of T's neices because we went away with them and all the boys had capes and she didn't. So i have created her own cape that is for her own superhero Ziggy! I have altered it since taking the picture by adding velcro to the elastic bit for safety. It had it's first outing today at a birthday party with matching leggings and shorts!Very cute!

 I then had a friends birthday and she hinted that she liked the aprons i had made so i created her one for her. (please excuse the mess in the background i put off tidying so i could do some sewing! It wasn't a hard choice to make!)






Also want to say congratulations to my sister who had her first stall today selling her fantastic gadget holders that she sews. They are so glam and chic! Well done Jo!
