A strong teacher? I promise you, my teaching skills are a lot better than my proofing skills! 😆

A little better! 😁

If you're wondering what happens to the bits that are too small for cushions I put them in a massive free to a good home box for anyone who comes to the studio. 😊

With some people confessing to the number and length of UFOs maybe we should do one of those super fun and not all disheartening monthly challenges.

We could call it Finish it February.

Yes, I'm even procrastinating a challenge to finish things. I'm just that good at procrastination. 😆

UFOs. UnFinishedObjects.

Being a strong teacher isn't all glamour!

All materials are provided and I like to give people the choice so they'll actually use what they make.

This means a lot of pre cutting. Today is fabric for cushions.

Is it boring? Yes. 😆

You know how they say perfection is the enemy of done?

I've just found a dress I started 10 years ago but thought I had mucked up so put it in a "I'll get to that later" pile.

It's absolutely grand. Apart from being too small and the sleeves are nowhere to be found! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thanks! In fairness the machine does it all! 😆

If you fancy making some personalised embroidered gifts for Christmas give me a shout. (sorry, I know, it's not even November 😬)

I spent ages today doing a time lapse of the embroidery machine in action. Did I hit record? Of course I didn't.

So have a picture of the finished product instead!
