Frustrated with Little Shoes




Below, remnants of the shoes, RIP




I have been working on some adorable shoes that I got inspired by the design of Amy Butler. In spite of being motivated and working frivolously over the machine, these little turds are NOT cooperating. It seems that I always attach the Velcro to the wrong side, or every time I try to stitch through the Velcro it jams the machine! GRRRR...


Needless to say, these little tykes are going into the trashcan tonight and I will begin working on something new. Not to mention our tiny apartment is not lending itself to my craft. I have my things all over the place. The ironing "center" is on the kitchen counter, my sewing "room/studio" is in the corner of our bedroom where I use the window sill as a shelf, a tray-table for the machine desk, and Bella's crate to store my box(es)! Wow, sanitary, huh!


I guess the best thing to do now is get a good nights rest after putting up dishes, doing a bit of laundry, and hanging up some clothes before bed.

Tomorrow is a new day; hopefully one that is far more productive!
