Handsewing Wol

This week, I am doing a hand sewing project of an owl kit. These are available from the shop at my work so I thought I would give one a go.

I am also planning to try and crack embroidery stitches, something I have not attempted since appalling sewing lessons in school. The teacher was a very grumpy old lady who was a real tidyness Nazi.'The back should be the same as the front'. Except you don't see the back so I don't get that. Also, isn't sewing supposed to be creative?

Once I have dared to use my new sewing machine (inherited from my friend Tor) I am on two new and challenging projects:
Japanese style stretch striped top and corduroy jacket.
