I, Karen, pledge to do the button holes and buttons on my sew over it blouse. It means that I have to make sure that the pattern matches. Then I will finish the hem of my walkaway dress.

I've got a pair of Pietra shorts which need hemming and a pair of Ploen Pattern trousers to put in the elastic and hem! and a pair of cargo pants to hem.......as you can no doubt guess, I hate hemming!  But I pledge to get all three done!

I, Lesley, pledge to finish my Taylor trousers by Blackbird fabrics.
I promised myself I would hand stitch the hems, but because of this I've just put them to one side, but they deserve an invisible hem.

Lesley - 1 month ago

Ooh they are going to be lovely once they're done

The Tina skirt has ended up in "file 13" - really didn't suit me - having sewing nightmares and so abandoned in favour of other projects.

"I Tamlyn pledge to finish one project plus potentially a second if time allows!"

I will FINALLY finish my Closet Core Jenna Shirt - which means to make bias binding with my scraps, bind the hem, then do button holes and sew up the buttons (Which could be a ncie activity for the WIP and Sip evening!

I also have a matching Bestie Bag in progress, so it would be a bonus if I finished that too, or at least make a bit more progress on it

I have a drew sweatshirt that I started. Then decided I did not like the colour ribbing I was going to use, kept forgetting to add ribbing to an order. Ordered it last week to finish for the challenge this week. It is due tomorrow. I also have a pair of joggers cut but waiting for said ribbing before I sew it up. Plus I need to cut the fabric for my first bestie bag. Pattern was printed and cut ready two weeks ago. 

Sandra - 1 month ago

Well done for getting that ribbing ordered!! Great pledge

Pretty much all of it, I'd only got as far as cutting out a few of the fabrics for it. I'm not very good at doing the same project over and over again so I've been putting it off, but my husband asked me to make one for his Mum for her birthday.
