Update: Running The Marathon One Stitch At A Time.

So lately I feel like I've been running a marathon, while trying to complete the first garment for my sewing course.

Yes you may say it's only an apron however there have been set backs, for example Betsy missing stitches and my having to wait to get her fixed.

Anyway.... never mind... moaning over. Now lets get onto the good stuff....

Since I have now finished my garment (the apron) I thought I would show you some pictures of the final product. I had a lot of fun making this one especially since it was my first time in my new sewing room and using bias binding (which was very hard round the curves.)




Something I have also learnt is I am not as big as I thought I was and as you can see the apron is toooo large!

So let me know what you think (be kind there is lots of issues with it) and till my next blog.... keep stitching!

  1. looks pretty :-) seems you must have had to use a shed load of bias binding on those edges!!

  2. Thank you! It's a little big. There is over 5.5 meters of bias binding in there. Didn't catch in all places but quiet unnoticeable.
