Finally a finished project- or two!

At last I have something other than cupcakes to show you lol!

Firstly some cushions I made for my friend's brother, after a bit of a struggle I was finally happy with them. Unfortunately he had to wait awhile for them due to me not being able to get the correct fabric. When I did get the fabric I then had trouble sewing it as it was a bit thick for my machine, this problem was solved when I was shown how to adjust the tension on my machine. Throw in a power cut for another delay, but he finally got them last weekend.

Last night whilst at my sewing class I managed to finish my table cloth. I'm going for a bit of a Cath Kidston type style in my kitchen/diner. When I bought the flowered fabric, in the centre, I didn't know what I was going to make (I just liked it) so when I came to make the table cloth I didn't have enough to do the last corner. This is why I ended up with 2 plain pink corners. I had decided to add the corners so that I could save money by buying less of the checked fabric so luckily my wonderful mam came to the rescue with the plain pink fabric from her extensive stash. I then simply finished the edges with a pale blue bias binding.

Mr T kindly holding it up for me to photograph.

The dresser you can see it the background of some of the pictures will hopefully be my next project, just trying to decide on which paint to use.

Thanks for reading.
