I just realised....

I recently just got into sewing maybe just a couple of months ago. I am really just a beginner and the first time I had my sewing machine, it was for scrapbooking, then just for mending bits and pieces, but after perusing some sites with sewing and crafts, I have decided to give it a go again. I was doing book keeping job for a friend and decided to use the money to buy my very own new sewing machine (the first one was a second hand), and here is my new machine.

But I realised I am actually a very impatient sewer. I needed to make sure that I finish anything I started and just wanted to see the finished product at the end of the day.

So yesterday, I started to make this quilted basket and eventhough I didn't have all that I needed, I improvised a bit and just tried to finished it.

It is quilted, and using a different fabric on each side.

And here it is in Josh's room.

And today, I did this very quick quilted wallets for Josh's cards, which we now call the card keepers.

One for his Pokemon cards.

And the other is for his Bakugan cards.

And so, I took a very well deserved rest from sewing after seeing the results of my quick labour (which is just so good... more of this sort of sewing I suppose until I am ready to take on a bigger project).

Anyways, I went out to take Josh to ride his bike, and Tara her scooter in the afternoon. I love the weekend!
