#seventy two

another of my birthday gifts

was a sewing project book and some fabric

from my friend Jane

using a small part of each fabric

plus some other 

I had in the house

together with some ribbon,

I made the pocket apron.

 I slightly modified it from the actual pattern

as I didn't have bias binding

and don't think I have the eyes or steady hand

to stitch that properly

its going to be so useful

when I'm doing all my bits and bobs

so, that is number seventy two

I find sewing makes a lot quicker

than knit or crochet

but there seems to be so much more mess

and I HATE all of the thread ends to sew in!

today I'll be listening to a cd

from a new band I recently heard on the radio
