With having extra time at home, I've finally managed to get a few sewing projects accomplished. First, I had this small needlepoint project to do. The poem says: Use it Up, Wear it Out, Make it Do or Do Without. I sewed some homespun scraps around the edges and will finish it with a wooden frame that was my Aunt Sharon's. Mom had it for a long time, but gave it to me recently. I'm pleased with how it turned out.
Second, I FINALLY patched a pair of Betsy's jeans and also inserted a piece of matching fabric at the hem on a pant leg. She only asked me to do it about 4 months ago.
Third, I made cute, lightweight curtains for my kitchen window out of a homespun print. Tabs at the top and they are hanging! Although, I'm still not finished there, because I want to make a simple valance to complete the job.
I wish I could sew every day and I love this saying: My day is not complete, till needle, thread and fabric meet.
