:: sewing BIG ::

More rain = more sewing.

Finished the hefty work-pocket for my friend Kirsten's classroom.  A bit over 2 metres x 1.2 metres.

This was an epic undertaking, mainly because I'm not too fluent in sewing-BIG.  But I did love it.  And it was for a great friend, so that made it a happy little project.

There are 30 pockets, all the same size, 6 in each row - I just sewed random strips using Ikea hippos in red and lime, some Sandy Klop ABC and connect-the-dots, a reddish spot, and some orangey Castle Peeps.  The pockets are lined in Ikea sheeting.

The navy/white background is a great Spotlight find, and on the back (no pic, sorry) is a very cute Ikea 'pacman' design. 

There may be sun tomorrow, so we may even venture outside the house.

Happy hols  xoxo cat
