There has been a definite frenzy going on around here. A sewing frenzy that is.
I have been trying to make at least two aprons a day and get them listed. I should be able to do more than that in one day, but with two kids stuck in the house because it is 107+ outside, it just isn’t happening. But so far so good.
I started a new series for the 4th of July, Summer barbecue crowd I’m calling it star spangled, and all but two (which will be photographed and listed tomorrow) of the series is available in my Etsy shop.
I’ve completed the Master Griller’s apron;
the Jr. Griller’s Apron;
the Sous Chef’s apron(s);
and one of the mini Sous Chef aprons.
I was on such a roll yesterday, but, last night, when I went to cut out another pattern, I couldn’t. SuperChic had made her bed on the floor in the living room. So instead I decided to work on a project that didn’t require full use of the cutting board. With many questions asked of Sue, at around midnight, I started. I worked without an actual pattern, instructions, or even another item to reference.
Considering all of that I am pretty happy with how it turned out. Shawn is even happier, because he didn’t have to spend money on this, this, or this, so I could have a new tote to use for BlogHer and San Francisco. And while he didn’t really understand why I wanted a new tote, he was going to let me get one, from Etsy, and not Target, where it would have been cheaper. (Though I really, really, want that cowgirl bag).
Now I know all of you are dying to know what my new toy looks like. So here she is.
I love her. She works wonderfully. I am a very happy person with lots of work to do.
