Sew Many Books: The Return

Hi everyone,

It has been a LONG time since I did a Sew Many Books post...for those of you who don't know what my Sew Many Books initiative is, have a look over this post :)

But a lot has happened that has caused many a disruption, my sewing machine broke; and although I did eventually get a loner, I had so much to sew prior to M's arrival my unfinished project form June took a back seat; Then M arrived, and it has been slow sewing around here...But I have missed my Sew Many Books project and so I have decided to bring it back bi-monthy!

Here is a button and please feel free to share it if you would like too...

I have the following books on my book shelf:

More Softies Only a Mother Could Love*

Zakka Style* (PROJECT MADE APRIL 2014)

Stuffed Animals*

Fleece Dolls*

Patchwork, Please!* (PROJECT MADE MAY 2014)

Sewn Toy Tales*

Sew!*

Easy Sewing Stretch Fabrics*
Stop. Go. Quilt. Sew! * (PROJECT IN PROGRESS)
Oliver + s: Little things to sew*
Stitch Zakka*

After having a flip though all my books, I have decided on this schedule for the next few months (incase you'd like to join in):

November 30
(I know its in a few weeks time, but the project that I started and meant to finish in July needs to be finished and revealed).

January 30
I will be revealing my version of the Penguin backpack from Oliver + s: Little things to sew*
T is due to start kinder in February, and he needs a cute backpack to take with him :)

March 30
I will be revealing my version of the shoulder bag from Sew!*
By March, I'll probably want another new handbag - right?! Actually lets face it, I always like and want new handbags ;) 

May 30
I will be revealing my version of Dinosaur from Stuffed Animals*
I might have to make 2 though as T and M will probably fight over it otherwise... 

Feel free to sew along with me on these projects or any project of your choice, oh and you don't have to make your item exactly as it is in the book to join in you could make an "inspired by" project too :)

I'll be sharing my finished project on November 30 and I'd love to share some of your projects on my blog too so please join in!
