Recently, Tom's kindy heard I can sew and asked me to make some new fabric pigeon holes for the kids. They offered to pay me (yay) and let me choose fabric and the design. So off I went only to find out it was NOT as easy as I thought. It wasn't technically difficult, just very very fiddly and there was a lot of measuring to make sure all pockets were evenly spaced, both width and lengthwise and making sure it was strong enough to deal with destructive kids. Anyway.......after a bit of procrastination (read=me cursing WHY I had agreed to take on this project) I got stuck in to it. It took about 6-7hrs from start to finish as it measures 1.5m x 1.2m and if I ever have to do another one I'll be factoring this time in to my quote!
Still, it's a lesson. I now realise that it's clothes I like making the most as I love seeing little people wearing my creations. Although I suppose there's some satisfaction to be had from seeing the wall hanging each time I go to kindy and knowing I made it.
