Wristlets

Paige has asked me to make her a wristlet, so I took a look on the internet for a pattern. I bought this one from Oh, Fransson and let me tell you, it is fantastic. Such wonderful instructions, pictures and sewing methods.

Here is my first one, I don't think she will go for this fabric but I did want to practice first. Sorry for the less the desirable picture.

Here is the second one, much better. I used all sorts of fabric from my scrap bin and I am very pleased with this one.

I glued 2 buttons together, added a pin back - thought it needed a bit of decoration.

So if you are thinking about making a wristlet, go buy this pattern, you will not be disappointed. Take a look at the way she finishes the top around each end of the zipper, fabulous.

Paige is coming home this weekend, with her hubby, for my birthday. I will let her pick out some fabric and I will make another one that is just her style.

Now for exciting news around our house:

We have had this countdown on the chalkboard for 3 weeks, tomorrow is the big day. She is one excited girl.

I ordered several knits for Needle Nook Fabric today, yea, the garment sewing mojo is coming back.
