I have been so inspired by many lovely crafty blogs like for instance Barbros Lille Atelier and Hvit Stil to bring out the sewing machine. I am not really "a friend" of the sewing machine and only have a very cheap machine mainly used for the most simple projects. I used to do a lot of embroidery, but the dream is to get an embroidery machine.
Think I need to have some more time for these projects to justify that purchase... ;-)
Yesteday after cleaning the house I decided it was ME time and sat down with the machine as I had material left over from a notice board project I did a couple of months ago (material from Callyco - a shop really worth a visit if you are in England! Their website is still not complete, but the shop is like a candy store for those loving to sew!). I quickly made this little lavender heart and emboidered (freehand) my initial on it and also made a new cushion cover which might get some more decor if I am in the mood for it one day..
I used to do a lot of crocheting when I was in my teens and had made a very rough cover to keep the crochet needles in ;-).
My bestest friend back home recently gave me a very fancy cover to keep my knitting needles in (she loves cats as much as I do).
It is great as I love having order in my "stuff"!
Now I just need to look for another project to do...!
Heisan, Mette! Flinkisen! Dette så jo supert ut. Morsomt å ha noen slike sy-prosjekter på gang.
ReplyDeleteØnsker deg en god natt og en fin ukestart!
Klem,

Nydelig! Så flink du er. Er så kos å sitte med sånne prosjekter..
ReplyDeleteKos deg med symaskinen, den vinner seg og blir en god venn etterhvert. Ser forresten ut som dere er gode venner allerede :)
Nyt den nye uken!
Klem fra Tove
Så fine og koselige ting du har laget, Mette! Hjertet var jo bare helt nydelig med monogram og greier! Kjempegøy at du har funnet fram symaskinen - dette går jo som en drøm:-) Så får vi heller drømme sammen om en sånn broderingsmaskin. Det står høyt på min ønskeliste. Veldig stas å bli nevnt i bloggen din. Takker og bukker - og rødmer litt...
ReplyDeleteGleder meg til å se mer av syprosjektene dine.
Ha en fin dag!
Klem
