Sewing mamas!Calling all AmityMama's who like to sew! Do you make quilts, clothes, diapers, bags? Do you love to run your fingers through fiber? Can't get enough just sewing, but want to talk about it too? Come on in!
**Added pics of sewing room! LOL** 24 hours and 148 *POINTS FOR THE EAST* Later ~
22 pairs of kids pants, 3 pairs of kids shorts, and one pair of mama pants. WHEW! I am tired! LOL Some of these are for Sophie, some of them for the Summer Fwap (as Sophie calls it), and some will be freebies for large orders. I know, you're probably thinking "Flannel? Now? In Summer?", but alas it was either sew it up or donate it because I don't really care for flannel. Well, that's not entirely true -- I do like it for lounge pants, we just had no need for 25 pairs of lounge pants.
One pair is missing as Sophie is wearing them!
And these are my faves ~ LWI muslin from another fwap (Allison/MaidenComfort, maybe?).
GO EAST!
I just had to add these pictures of my sewing room after the 24 hour sewing marahton. I walked in there earlier and just had to stand there and take it all in for a while. It was such a pit.

Yk, it's so nice to see other sewing mamas who make messes. My dh is always complaining about my sewing room, he seems to think most seamstresses are neat and clean all the time, lol.
Way to go!!
I have spent most of last night trying to clean my sewing area and I still have more to go Thankfully I have an understanding DH and DDs!!
GO EAST!!

I think there is some sort of penalty for sewing sooo many lounge pants...like minus 1000 points for your team :P
My sewing room looks like yours after sewing. Seth saw your sewing room pic and said "Ughhh how do people sew with all that crud on the floor"! Referring to me also in that statement. I think he'd like me to sweep as I went along

Seth! Tell him that near the end of the project I was feeling the same way. I actually slipped on a pattern tissue at one point -- no, I'm not joking!
My dh only gets upset when, as he says, my sewing room starts spilling over into the other rooms. IOW, when scraps of thread and fabric start getting dragged around the house! bwahhaahahhaahahhaa
My sewing room looks like that right now after all the sewing I've been doing this week. eeek! It only gets to me when I step on a bobbin and break it or get so much stuff tangled around the wheels to my chair that I can't roll anymore.
Great job making so many pairs of lounge pants! (now you can stop )
