What I've been doing …
Posted in I think I'm crafty on 18. Mar, 2008
Needles still involved, it’s just hooked up to a sewing machine!! Voila.. a baby blanket is born. I’m quite fond of the little blanket I put together, and it turned out quite nice. I heart it. 30 squares.. all cut 6.5×6.5 .. sewed together.. then the rows sewed together.. all put onto a backing of one solid piece. I had my doubts, believe me! But, it turned out… quite. cute.
So.. after a fantastic morning I headed to Joann and bought me some MORE fabric to sew MORE things… I might just go down into my dungeon and sewsewsew away … I had nothing to knit at the moment .. so I figured it was fine time to get to know Senor Singer. No bobbin issues.. I can thread the needle in a matter of seconds .. I think we’ll be fine friends.. or shall I say amigos. We’ll have margaritas and chips and salsa. We’ll admire the work we’ve created, together, as a team.
Do you think I might need a nap?
Way to go Mel……nice job……I used to sew, but there is soooo much dust collectin on my Singer it’s just not worth the bother to drag it out…..

You did a fantastical job on the blanket. Any baby would be honored to snuggle in it! I’m impressed with how good your sewing skillz are! You never cease to amaze me! Cheers!
That’s gorgeous! Hard to believe someone who could make that had doubts. Brava!
Looks great! There’s nothing like a nap with a soft snuggly blanket—-homemade to boot!
