and barely a stitch has been sewn!
I have moved house after spending 18 years in my
previous 'home'.
During the unpacking, I managed to rip one of my
favourite "Gorman" dresses....
Not a large hole but front, centre and at knee level.
So I decided on some visible mending....
a little piece of fabric from my extensive stash was
found....
and applied with a running stitch of stranded
embroidery thread.
I also sewed a denim skirt, challenging myself with a fly
zip closure....

The colour is not a true representation

YouTube is your friend when the pattern's instructions
are brief and confusing!
When I get the buttonhole made and the button sewn
on, I'll to share another photo.
I have enjoyed knitting in the evenings....
I find it very relaxing!
This will be a long sleeved version of my Soldotna top
which I made a couple of years ago.
Now that we are settled into our 'temporary' home,
where we will be for about five months,
I'm planning my first quilt for 2022....
and my second and third!
Happy sewing!
