Resolution Report

I made a little more progress on the UFO Basket(s). This is a scrap of upholstery fabric Jo found. . . somewhere. . . and asked me to make into a rug for her doll house.
It's a really cool fabric with great napped ridges on it. It really did look like a rug! But it was really ragged at the edges so I need to bind them. This should have been another easy 5-minute project, but those napped ridges were a bear to bind. It didn't help that I was using really skinny binding tape (what I happened to have on hand) and on the first pass I didn't bother to use any pins.

*pick*pick*pick*swear*swear*swear*pick*pick*pick*

I did it right the second time and it turned out great.

And one more that really was an easy 5-minute project. Repair the clasp on this necklace. 5 minutes with my jewelry tools and it's out of my basket.

How are you all doing?

Happy Monday!

Best,
Wendi

  4. Mending UFO Pile is down to one button to sew on. Unpacked all my button jars so now I can find one for the shirt.

    Then to finish curtain/drapes for our new living room.

    Then I swear I am going to sew myself something!
