Okie...here we go again. This was my second crack at this pattern and fabric line (see previous attempt here).
Having made the pattern before, I thought it qualified as reading the pattern, but I read it again nonetheless. I learnt my lesson!
Also, having made the pattern before it was a quick sew. I would have had it done in one night but I sewed my finger and decided to call it quits for the night right at the end.
Anyway, this one turned out much better. Peacocks remained intact (although I still managed to butcher my FQ in the process).
This is for my handmade birthday club. The recipient is the very talented Ms Midge - it's her faux birthday. I hope she likes it! And can overlook the imperfections (perfectly imperfect??).
And that's another one off my Q1 FAL list. I'm finding having the list quite a good motivator.
Next month is my month for the birthday club. I am VERY, VERY excited. It is a pool of very clever ladies that I'll be receiving gifts from. I must say I feel slight sorry for the ladies at the start of the club since my sewing has improved a lot since then! Sorry girls! I've done my best and managed to make a few things off my Pinterest list. I'll keep you posted on the goodies I receive this month.
I absolutely ADORE my purse Hayley!!!! I have a lot of functions coming up in April, so I think it will get worn out! xxx
