Sac, originally uploaded by AdinaBean.
I sewed this a while back. It is made with a lot of love, and has pockets, lining, velcro, ribbon, and so on. Don’t forget the mushrooms!
A lot of effort and careful planning paid off.

My first cross stich!, originally uploaded by AdinaBean.
My first cross-stich project. It’s about 5cm tall/wide. I am pleased with it. It’s time-consuming and very relaxing. Another thing to add to my list of relatively useless but fun skills.

I’ve just finished sewing this cushion cover. It’s from this tutorial.
It was surprisingly quick and easy to make, and I’m not quite a dab hand at this sewing business. Very exciting stuff!

My chum Ash gifted me this singlet from Supré. Aussies will understand why I am not comfortable wearing it, despite the awesome print. So I did this to it, and now I am proud to own it.
I am aware that my stitching is dodgy and the zip is coming off a bit, but I don’t [...]
