{i heart sewing; i hate the flu}

i’ve been out of commission since saturday due to this never-ending flu hence my delayed post. i was actually able to get up today for the first time without my head pounding to the ground and chills going through my body. let me tell you this flu season is wretched. be careful and take care of yourselves.


now on to more fun stuff…last month my friend and i signed up for a machine sewing class at a place called purl soho. it was three saturdays, 9-12 in february. the 9am was brutal...but worth it. we made a tote bag (not pictured above- having trouble uploading) and a zipper pouch (pictured above). {i heart} the zipper pouch. my plan is to make more pouches in all different kinds of fabric. the store has such beautiful & inspiring fabric- mostly from japan.



if any of you are looking for something fun to do on the weekend- this class was great. phyllis, our teacher, is very patient and willing to work with all levels. her class begins in march again. i'm waiting for the intermediate class to begin- i might sign up again. if not i'll be at home in a pile of thread and fabric trying to figure out what went wrong.
