just a stitch at at time

it’s so hard to find the time to get everything out and sit down and create stuff.  I recently found time and was able to complete yet another (and best one so far) camera strap. This one though, I cannot post pictures of because it could be a Christmas gift for someone special who I do not want to see it. I’ll just have to save the picture for later :)

I also was able to mend some of Josh’s pants. Surprise: I’ve never mended anything before except a hole in a smock for work-where the seam had just torn. The pants turned out alright and will hopefully last a bit longer! (we’ll see how good they turned out after they go through the wash…*fingers crossed*)

I also did some work on my bay window curtains. I discovered I could sew the rings on with my sewing machine and that made the process so much faster! I’ve been putting off doing some final hand sewing-I really hate that part-but now it’s done. I’ve been thinking of some touch ups I’d like to do to them-maybe adding some buttons or some hidden snaps where they could use some help hanging just right when pulled up (they’re loooong roman shades) They will mostly live up but if I ever want to close the window I can!
