Mending

When people find out you owe a sewing machine and you actually know how to use it, you get the funniest requests.
The coach of our kids’ gymnastics club asked to repair the covers of two of the mats.
I hardly ever say no, so after checking the thickness of the fabric I gave my usual answer: yes I can. 



I repaired it, but it was a very troublesome job! The covers are too bulky, too heavy and too smelly to move easily under the machine.


I got the best of the struggle with the covers, so the kids can train safely at gymnastics.


But our Bernina needs a day off and I need a shower.

Personalized in the pool

Lately the kids got the habit to swim without swimming clothes on, as their swimming trunks are worn to shreds!
This morning we received our newly ordered swimming trunks. All five the kids were super happy and had them immediately baptized.



We also love the other stuff she makes.
