For sewing the plan is 2 doll dresses per month, plus we need placemats for 10 months and I like a set of 4. My goal is to make them one month ahead of need. So I will start these in February I plan to make a couple “Bendy Bags” and “run around bags” as well as a bolts worth (about 130) of purple baby hats for the hospital. Then there is a request for the microwave bowl holder for gifts.
I am doing the yahoo groups knit along wash cloth which is monthly. They offer 2, but I’ll be happy to get one done each month. I also have enough yarn to do at least 10 pair of socks. If I can squeak them in here, I’d like to do a couple crocheted baby blankets as well.
So these are my 2016 craft goals. What are yours? I’d love to hear them.
Using the free pattern by “aquiltedpassion“, I cut two 10” squares from my cotton fabric (or for reversible, use 2 different pieces) and 2 pieces of cotton batting a bit smaller. This must be the Warm and Natural batting made for microwave use. JoAnn’s carries it as do other stores. Also use cotton thread as you do NOT want a microwave fire.
Next topstitch around which also closes the opening through which you turned this.
This is a very easy table runner which is the width of your fabric when done. Thank you, Sally, for the suggestion.
It starts with having to overlap two fabrics a bit and then cut a wavy line where they meet. Take the two fabrics and now put right sides together. Some of mine were a bit to wavy and more difficult to match the edges and stitch. There are 5 more fish to add to the scene.
These socks are progressing nicely. They will have a contrast heel and toe. I’m also happy it is an easy pattern, so I don’t have to think too hard. The pattern I’m using is an internet find, called “Lace Socks” by Jacqueline W. I am using an 8 ply wool made by PANDA. The contrast for the heel and toe is by them as well, but 50% wool and 50% acrylic, so hopefully will wear well.
