Just keeping my head above water here...

What a blur the past 5 days have been. With Crafty Mamas ( the grooviest sewing supply shop around) , my study, plus a bit of outside work I take on, sick kids, hubby's business, the long weekend...whew. It's just mad. I very nearly dropped the bundle...

but in the midst of my darkest hour ( 1000 words short for my essay), I sat, cut out and sewed...undies. For Miss B, three pair. The pattern is a new one to me, I have started stocking a few Jalie in the Cm shop as they are just brilliant. So this one...#2568...was my second try at a Jalie. And I love it. Mind you, the instructions annoyed me as they are on the huge AO sheet and I kept crumpling it as I sought them out. After one pair, I ignored them and went my own way baby. The result? Some very funky undies!

Fabric is from my stash, some cot/lycra knit left over. Trim is pink FOE. Miss B picked the lower waist option, with boy legs. Cute huh? I have many more to cut out. And the nice thing about little projects like this, you can achieve something in a short amount of time. Undies are practical, easy and soothing.

Go on..have you made undies lately;)?
