WOYWW

 Good morning to all my WOYWW friends and anyone else who pops in to see what I am up to.

Well this week I have been in my sewing room and my sewing machine has seen a bit of action - Yes!!

Max found a holiday shirt that she wanted me to upcycle for Ben.

Not quite as easy as I thought but it didn't take too long. 

I cut it out using the existing hems and button bands so that helped. It was just the collar that needed careful thought but the end result looks fine and will make a nice, cool summer shirt.

I mentioned paper bag shorts last week and caused confusion 😀

Basically they are just shorts with a bit above the waist band. (Imagine a paper bag held together at the top with a bit of the bag gathered above your hand). 

Here they are ...

I just made them with a bit of left over fabric to make sure they fit etc before we go looking for something suitable to make them up in. I feel a trip to Watson and Thornton's coming on!

I also managed a bit of knitting whilst watching the footie this week.

This is my summer themed twiddler...

And then, in the post came this lovely card and ATC from Felicia.

So good to see little snapshots from around the world in a postcard and a beautiful ATC to go with it. Thanks lots Felicia.

Well that's me for this week.

I hope you have a great week.

xx Jo
