she's alive

and she sews!

so, folks,
guess what i did tonight?

that's right,
i dusted off the old machine
and gave it a go...

i mended two pairs of underwear
 and a t-shirt hem,
took in a pair of shorts,
converted a pair of tights 
into hemmed footless tights
and...

< wait for it >

i finally made myself a clothespin bag!!!!

i more or less used this tutorial.
and i am SO pleased with how it turned out.
take a gander..

before 
(a pillowcase i found a while back at value village for $.99)


after
(happy dance, happy dance)

when it was all said and done it only took me an hour!
(okay, like three months and an hour...go procrastination)

note to self:
i love sewing and must do it more often.
that is all.
