Dashing along on the sewing machine!

Christmas is fast approaching, school is out in 10 days time and there is still so much secret sewing to do! So I have been putting the pedal to the floor as much as I can, around the busyness of life.
I have made a second infinity scarf…

...and another pouch and pencil case.

I have also started attaching the binding onto my Christmas table runner.

So now I need to hand sew the binding to the back of the runner. This is my favourite job as I love to see the whole project change into the finished item in front of my eyes! It might not get done tonight but hopefully I will have it all finished in the next couple of days.

  3. ooh, how exciting, you've nearly finished- there is something amazing about hand finishing the binding, i totally love it, i don't think i would completely machine bind even if I could get it to look great! : )

  4. You have been busy Di! Love your hand stitching detail. My favourite bit is sewing the binding down too - even though it takes ages there is something very therapeutic about it. x
