It's a world of wuffly snuffles here with the smallest home again today with the lurgy.
As she has grown SO much and has an aversion to jeans (or anything that I purchase these days) it has been a good opportunity to let her rummage through the stash and make her own design choices - the theory being that she may actually wear final product rather than use it as a defiant door stop in a very messy bedroom ... here's hoping...
After much discussion and she settled on various types of butterflies that I didn't even know were in the stash!
She helped with some cutting and ironing and then became very bored with it all and preferred to sniffle through a DVD on the couch. The pefect place to be when the lurgy strikes!
Long sleeve t-shirt - basics range from Big W, applique circle of chosen fabric then highlighted with running stitch in perle 8 cotton.
(you can tell from the blurry image that despite having the lurgy, my model doesn't like to stay still)
Skirt - basic a-line shape with elastic waist and machine hem (all about quick and easy here). Circles of fabric ironed into place with visoflex and then hand stitched with perle 8 running stitch.
She has given the finished products the thumbs up but we'll wait to see if she'll actually wear them.
Hope you and yours are lurgy free.
