    my sewing machine and piles of material! It really needs a tidy up but I have so many projects on the go atm (christmas presents) that I can't be bothered until I've finished!

    Unfinished projects are- a patchwork bookmark I made for myself..all I have to do is hand stitch all around the edge, so simple but I haven't done it yet, and the bookmark keeps falling onto the floor
    DD's christmas pinny- have to make a yo yo or bow or something to hide some messy patches near the straps because I did it wrong
    A patchwork puppy- half of it is sewn up, the other half is in tiny little squares of fabric everywhere...might be lucky to have it finished by the time DD is 10
    A calico pillowcase I was appliquing (by hand) funky coloured lizards onto. It was supposed to be for my little brother, but he's not so little now and I don't know if it will suit a 13 year old (although I reckon he'll be 20 by the time I have actually got around to finishing it!).

    I hate to think what else is floating around underneath the piles of fabric, patterns, polyfill, an iron and two rolls of wrapping paper (?)

    I have a broken sewing machine, loads of scraps of fabric for this birthing quilt I have to make and now I don't know how I am going to finish it!!
    I also have 3 mtrs of PUL to make nappies but still haven't mastered the art of sewing elastic lol.
    Maybe I need a teacher to sit at my table!
