Anyhow, I'm excited about my upcoming plans but am surprised at how fast June went by!!!! But I was able to get a few things accomplished. Here's a recap of the last 2 months---May & June. I made some clothing....an electric blue peplum, a dress for my daughter, a knit peplum, 2 pairs of colorful leggings (turquoise and bright pink) and 2 coordinating tops---all pictured below.
Also, I didn't get a chance to do any reviews but I made some home decor pieces too as promised using fabric I bought at Jo-Ann's. I made these barstool covers based on this previous post. Instead of cushions I used some green foam and cut them into circular pieces:) They go perfectly with my "mccaw green" accent wall:)
I also made these "Roman Shades" based on this tutorial a friend sent to me:) Note: I did use the tension rods but ended up sewing the ends and finishing the seams properly by sewing machine/serger.
Non-sewing related, I actually created this matching flower arrangement after catching a 70% off florals sale at Jo-Ann's. I'm not a professionals but I LOVE the way it turned out.
Anyhow, I love my colorful kitchen and all the items I sewed up the last couple of months!!!
Ok, that's the wrap-up. I'm looking forward to some exciting sewing for next month. Stay tuned. Also, I'm hosting a book giveaway. See my last post for details!!!!!!
Ooh lucky you! I can understand you missing your gorgeous girl and being excited at some child free time at the same time - I'm sure you'll get loads done
