It's been a while

I'm so sorry I haven't been on-line for a while.

You see, I have been sick with a throat infection. I've been extremely tired and I have some news... I'm so crafty I'm brewing a bun in the oven! I'm kind of excited but mostly, exhausted! Plus with the sickness I am also not allowed to take any medication. It is truly a dilemma but one that us 'mum' have to presevere through without whining. Hubby has been really great and looking after the little ones while I am trying to look after myself and the newest little one.

So, with that being said I'm sure I'll be sewing up some maternity patterns for myself, along with some cute baby stuff too.

Ahh, time for a nanna nap.

Take care my dear friends. I promise that I will be back soon.

    Awesome - congrats! Yes, being pregnant with littlies to look after is hard work. Just make sure you crack the whip at the hubby while you concentrate on growing a great little bubby!

Invisible zipper foot - Birch

I thought I might shed some light on the invisible zipper foot. I bought a Birch model from Spotlight and it came in a little plastic bag with four blue shanks and a rolling foot. First I removed the standard foot from my Janome sewing machine (Sewist 521). I realised I still needed to remove the shank, which is the part that is screwed on, and holds the interchangeable feet. So with one hand holding the screwdriver and one hand holding my daughter, who just had to watch, it popped out disappeared somewhere. NO! I was about to kick myself but luckily I found it in the basket underneath my table. Phew. The Birch invisible zipper foot comes with one shank already in place so you know how it's suppose to fit. You have to select the correct shank that fits your machine and slide it onto the foot piece. I just tried each blue part on my machine and made sure it was wide enough to cover the metal leg bit and that I could fit the screw in it's side. Once you find the correct shank sl...
