stripe shirt

written by Jen on Monday, April 7, 2008One Comment

I am in the process of cutting out another shirt using NewLook 6407 again. This time I am doing View A which is the main photo on the pattern envelope. Hopefully I will finish it tomorrow but probably more realistically Wednesday… or Thursday even!

Today as well as cutting this out, I took up two pairs of new jeans for my big niece Rachel (19) and also took a large amount off the length of Jack’s new Karate uniform, sleeves and legs. He looks SO cute doing his Karate. He has been going every Monday for around six weeks now and it’s amazing how much he has settled down and improved during class. I love going along to watch him. Emma comes with me and she is so good. She likes to quietly copy their moves (or try to at least!) and can’t wait until she is old enough to join him.

Tomorrow is a big day.  I have my last session at my wonderful Tuesday women’s group (before starting back in the workforce next Monday!) and my sister has a caesarian booked for tomorrow afternoon.  I can’t wait to meet Matilda (Tilly) and I know my sister is well and truly over being pregnant.  I hope it all goes smoothly for her.
