Last night I posted that I was going to look for some eye pad patterns. Whilst there were a number of them, they were all concave to stand away from the eye - but would not allow glasses to be worn over them. However I did see a picture that caught my eye - a cover for your glasses that bent around the corner to block out both front and side light - so I tried to adapt that picture for my own glasses using felt. A little rough - but it worked!
Happymum posed the question - was I going to make enough to match outfits with. Well - today I made a start. I have used different edgings - raw edge sewing, machine buttonhole and handsewing buttonhole stitch. They really don't take long to make but I will wait until I see the consultant tomorrow before I forge ahead - he may think them unsuitable.
Last night I also managed to finish sewing the sashing on the back of my quilt - only to find that someone had taken up residence already - bless!
So - today has been sewing and creating - but it was also a trip to the Senior Screen where I watched "Demolition" - a strange film - not bad just strange. On the way home Jean stopped at hers to get some crumbles out of the freezer that she had made for me - mmmmmm.
Brilliant patches!! I can see a new fashion trending!
ReplyDeleteMmm crumble...what a lovely friend
Patches look very snazzy, could be a new business venture, there must be an opening for stylish eye pads in the market?
ReplyDeleteBetter get them patented!
Good luck tomorrow.
