I'm just about through with the pillow covers I'm making for the girls, though I was thrown off track last night by my very first SRI. Yup, the Sewing Related Injury has reared its ugly presser foot, and my left index finger has been duly Band-Aided and kissed by an assortment of small people. Luckily, I missed both nail and when I decided to sew through the finger in question, and managed to keep the project blood-free, to boot.
Aside from some even-slower-than-ususal typing, I'm holding up pretty well. I'm a stoic like that.For some less-gory and more-creative spaces, head over to Kirsty's!
Ouch! But the pillows look worth the pain!
ReplyDeleteLOVE that end shot!
ReplyDeleteGosh she is such a cutie.
At uni I sewed through my finger, the needle snapped off inside and I had to have surgery to remove it. OUCH! I feel your pain.
Your fingers are weird-looking. But your kid? She's cute-looking! :P
ReplyDeleteOH NO Wendy!!! OWWW! You know that is one of my biggest fears doing that, I think it's the reason I'm a little scared of sewing machines.
ReplyDeleteHope it heals soon xo
great pillow and great toothless happy face beneath it! I am yet to sew a finger and fairly happy with my status!
ReplyDeletethanks for coming by - it is reallly only overwhelming the first time and after that it is amazing. Well worth fumbling through once I promise!
ReplyDeleteOh Wendy, you duffa. Hope the finger's feeling a little bit better. Well done for keeping your sewing blood free, very clever. Love the photos. xx
ReplyDeleteYikes! That sounds sore. I'm impressed with your strength to carry on with everything.
ReplyDeleteThat pillowcase looks wonderful - worth the loss of a digit!
Ow!! That sounds like something I would do! Well done for keeping the claret off the fabric though...nice work :-) xxx
