the other day i came to the sad realization that i would probably not get around to many of the projects i want to be doing and so i started packing things up. into boxes when all of my yarn, fabric, ribbons and more. i did keep my buttons out because i knew that i was participating in the Vintage Button Swap. i also kept a few bits of fabric and cut out lamb pieces in order to finish some baby gifts but we will see if i get to those.
the last time i posted i talked about a birthday gift i was in the process of making. the outcome was quite pleasing. i did some fabric applique on a shirt to match a pair of pants and then carried the pattern over into a book bag i stitched together. i also experimented with applying a freezer paper stencil on the front with the birthday girls initial. the next task i would like to make are few bags for Miss A to keep in the car, maybe hung over the front seats, in order to put books and toys in.
i am looking forward to having my very own sewing room where i can spread projects out and just close the door when done working on them. it is will be quite a change from the way it has been.

Love the green and pink colour combination! Good luck with the packing and unpacking. And yes, a room to sew in. Not just a dining table. Keep that in mind as you are packing and cursing the packing.
the lamb and the stencil are both great! moving is so very hard. best of luck!
I think it's easier to purge at the new place somehow. When it's a question of finding a place to store it or tossing it, tossing it often seems the easier option.
Good luck!
Congratulations on the new house! I looked at the photos you linked and it looks fabulous! Well done on the sewing room thing too, I'm jealous.
I love your little lambs too, they're so cute.
thanks for the link
