Sewing on Saturday

I did it, I did it!
I did some sewing today!!
And I'm sure it was only to get something up on this post.
See, it did work.

I made one peg pouch and I'm very pleased with it.
I cut my own pattern by modifying the peg apron.

I moved the straps from the sides to the top and made it narrower with only one pocket instead of two.

Now I can just tie it around my neck and sling it on and off whenever I need it.
Too easy!!

I can't wait to make more in different colours and fabrics.
Got any good suggestions?

Sewing on Saturday

This blog has been very neglected of late.
And so has my sewing machine...hmmm I see a correlation here.

So I've decided to start a 'Sewing on Saturday' weekly post updating what I've been doing in the sewing room. That might motivate me to actually do something!
I hope...or this will be a very boring space.

I went to Lincraft this morning and purchased some fabric.
I haven't done that for ages, gee it felt good!
There's a new idea rolling around in my head. I want to modify my peg apron.

Peg aprons


I love my peg apron, but sometimes I'm too lazy to tie it at the back so I've taken to leaving it tied and slinging it over one shoulder. So it's become more of a 'peg pouch'.

And that is my new idea...a peg pouch.
I'm going to use this fabric, and hopefully it will all come together soon so I have something to show you next week!
