A Spot of Sewing and a Visit to Spotlight

(All packaged up in the gift bags made by Mum. Thanks Mum)

One of our little friends turned 1 yesterday so I whipped him up a little pair of pants and embellished a little t-shirt for him. I am sure he will look super cute in it. His mum loved it, so that's always a good start! I used some cord from my stash and the cuffs and pockets are made from the surfy material I picked up at the YMCA garage sale last week.

I also ventured out to Spotlight in the afternoon. The service in my local Spotlight is terrible. The queues are long and most of the staff are cranky but I did get some nice stuff. Just after Christmas I inherited some gorgeous cottons from Granner's (My Grandma) stash that will make cute winter pants. So I found some great Japanese Linen that will make cuffs and pockets. And some nice cottons that will line some Vintage Pinafores I plan on making for the markets. Alecia and I are off to Here at the end of March, so its time to get sewing!
