Long time since I posted.
I have had a lot of dress-orders and had nearly no time to sew anything for myself. I did not really need a lot (except pants/jeans) so I was ok. I got some clothing from friends to replace old and worn out items. I brought some too goodwill because I simply could not fit into it anymore, and.....I bought some.
Yes I am very ashamed, I bought 2 pairs of jeans. I really was going to make some, but time was running out and I spotted a great sale of 2 pair for 55 euro. So I got 2 pair. Needless to say I am very happy with them :-)
Now the gift season is upon me and I need to get some birthday and Christmas gifts going. I already got some books and stuff for my family and this weekend I will attend a housewarming a.k.a. birthdayparty of a friend. She only wanted oven mitts. So I got her oven mitts. But instead of buying, I made some!
The pattern is from Burdastyle #8125 B. Really easy to make and don't they look great! The fabric is a great find I got from the USA (contemporaryfabric.com I believe ). I already used part of it in a dress and what I had left was perfect for these babies :-) They turned out so well that I am thinking of making a few more to give away during Christmas season. It's the perfect gift for encouraging your friends to bake more of those lovely cookies!
