Been having a go at making jewellery

I am excited today, as this came in the mail. It is gorgeous handspun, hand dyed wool, for adding lots of bright love hearts onto the hoodie jacket I made for my grand daughter. :)

@Neri That looks wonderful, you have one lucky grand daughter, even I think you might feel that you are the lucky one having her :)
 
Thank you @kriss72 ! I will upload the complete garment when I've finished.
I did put up a pic of it in this thread so you can see the back of it from a while ago.

Post in thread 'Post your project' https://www.autismforums.com/threads/post-your-project.39293/post-1061443
I looked at the thread you linked to, I really like it, looking forward to seeing the completed result, (and wouw to the hand coloring of the thread)

To keep in the spirit of the thread (!) , I made this for my daughter when she was much younger than she is now:

Attempted to make drawers out of a pillowcase and I don't like the way they came out.
I did get the first of my hats finished up mostly, and liked the way it came out a lot more than the drawers project.

Hardest thing to find isn't sewing machine parts or thread or fabric. It's hard to find patterns for men's clothing.
Have you seen this vintage patterns website?
Vintage Sewing Patterns PDF - Men & Boys Boxer Shorts

There are also a lot of old patterns for men's clothing on etsy, especially vintage patterns :)
