    what you planning on making Laura?

    I've been saving DS's old shirts and jeans to make a patchwork throw but not quite got round to it. I thought it would be nice to remember when he was wee and cute when I looked at it.

    I don't know yet tbh, picked it up on thursday for 2.50 and figured its time to start making and fixing my own clothes.

    well pleased with the bargain :D

    well worth it for 2.50! I mainly use mine for repairs and adjusting things as I've found buying stuff is much cheaper than making these days but curtains and stuff like that are cheaper to make. Reminds me though - have some tracksuit bottoms to fix for DS... a fun evening ahead!
