But I have managed to get some crafting in, mainly on the sewing front.
I have made a waterproof bib that has poppers on it! Fed up of only finding bibs that had poppers on it that were not waterproof and got really fed up of having to constantly fix the velcro after Robert kept pulling it off! At the moment they are out for testing.
At the same time, I found a pattern in Craft Seller for a travel set which consists of a bib, changing mat and bag, all made out of PVC. Found some pretty spotty material in our local Dunelm Mill, along with the white bias binding and made this set.
My friend is currently testing this for me. I later found some nursery PVC in Dunelm Mill which I bought and hope to make another set out of that.
I also went and bought myself a bias binding machine, as I thought it would be good to make my own for projects.
I ended up making Robert some trousers, I found a pattern online and then adapted for my. Originally I was going to use dark blue fabric for the inside but cut it wrong so used some light blue and found it worked better. The alien material I got from Hobbycraft, but unfortunately I cannot get anymore nor can I find it online in metre lengths.
Made a couple of crayon rolls using left over alien fabric and the dark blue material. I had fun trying to figure out the instructions but got there in the end! In this one I sewed ribbon on for tying, but the first one I did, I used button.
Slowly getting into a routine, but finding it hard on my health, hopefully my body will adjust itself soon. Robert is trying to stand and walk rather than crawl, but he is enjoying going to the childminders before going to granny for afternoons. I am enjoying being me again, although it is taking its time!
Bye
