NOOOO:eek: Not on your own, please. Is there no-one else who can help you?I'm in this week, and will tackle the kitchen later. I've got to work out how to get this piece of carpet down in the lounge. It weighs a ton! And I've got to shift all the furniture around to get it in, then cut it to size. The invoice says it's 11' 3" x 4m!!!
I'll have to do it myself because DH won't bother and it will just lie in the hallway being tripped over.
Been there done that (both of them:rotfl:) Try calling it 'reverse sewing'.I'm making a patchwork bag (backpack type) and I've made the front. I did the two halves for the back, and was going to sew the zip in when I discovered I'd done two right sides :rolleyes: so I spent two hours last night unpicking all the strips. So today I'm going to get on with that and finish it. Saturday is the day I have the lesson and it wasn't a good day - I forgot my sewing kit for a start :rolleyes:0 -
well done gryfon, wish i could do the photo thing, might be motivation, tried before and ended up putting all the photos on and not just the one i wanted, will try again though!!0
