So I may have had less time to do 'proper' sewing, but I have done more cross stitch than I have for years, and this is the result! I had started this but done very little until my pregnancy, but spent many hours doing it while I was too miserable to do much else, and then found that it was a good thing to squeeze into brief moments of relaxation as it didn't require scisssors, sewin machine or pins (all baby hazards!)
I love the result and need to put it in a frame so I can put it on the wall, along with another picture from the same series I completed while I was in uni.
And I promised I'd blog what I'd done even if it was tiny, last night I added binding to the armhole of the sahri bustle dress, and prepared the binding for the other side. I got the sewing clips as a free gift with a magazine and I think they're going to be useful - I don't normally have a problem with pins, but at least these can't damage curious baby fingers, althouh I'll have to keep track of them or he might eat one!
