Since I bought a sewing machine almost 2 years ago, I have really enjoyed teaching myself how to sew. Now that we are mostly settled into our home, I have a couple sewing projects that I want to complete over the next month.
The first one is for Connor's room. I don't know if you remember, but I made pennant banners for his first birthday {you can see them here}. I really loved how they turned out and wanted to incorporate them in his room, the only problem was that the circus theme didn't quite go. So I bought some new fabric that coordinates with his bedding and I plan on making 3 long banners to hang throughout. I felt like his room needed a little something, and I think this will complete it. I also love that I will be able to reuse the banners in his future room and birthday parties.
The second project that I want to work on is a basket liner for my brand new bicycle. Italians ride their bicycles E.V.E.R.Y.W.H.E.R.E. As soon as I saw all the cute bikes and the baby seats you can attach to them, I knew I had to get one! This Sunday we were looking around one of the sports stores in town and I saw one that I liked. Aaron convinced me that I should get it, so we did :)
Riding it around in our neighborhood for the first time.
I got this metal basket for it at the store today.
I am going to order this fabric for the liner. I think it will go perfect with the lavender accents on my bike. Plus, it's super feminine.
I can't wait to start working on these 2 projects. I will post pictures once I finish them.
