Superhero Girl

Who says she can't be Superman? That's what she said when we got the invitation card to her classmate's Superhero themed party. She was right, there aren't many "superwomen" who had costumes that are age appropriate for a 6 yr old. So got my hands on some red and blue satin, and whipped this up.



Downloaded the famous symbol and appliqued it to a plan blue t-shirt, then made a simple skirt and cape with matching belt. Just before we reached the party venue, M said to me "Mummy, we forgot something, the RED UNDERWEAR!!" Too cute.

Not much sewing happening lately on account of the lazy bug, mainly triggered by renovation blues. The new place will likely be delayed a couple more months (argh). Starting to pack up all the stuff ready for the move to storage so a few more dry months. Will bring along some half completed projects to finish up at Mum's though. Anyway, must look on the bright side, I will have a dedicated sewing studio (its really just a corner) at the new place so looking forward to kitting that out.

Here's some simple pillow cases made to cover the now grotty pillows made last year. Need to get more projects done.
