Well I am on a stop buying magazines from the newsagent phase….
But but but I just thought I might break it when I saw Cheryl’s post of her farmyard friends.
Then I had a bugger of a day umm Thursday and on the way home called into a newsagent to make me feel betterah and bought a magazine without really taking much notice as to what it was called…Imagine my delight when flicking thru the pages I found Cheryl’s farmyard friends.
So last night I set about to make Carmen the Chicken, strange that I should want to make that one right away eh? Anyways I happily snipped and sewed and she looked cute…
Then when I sat her down for a picture shoot..I was dang –bugger it-i don’t believe it I have made a big boo boo..
I realized I had sewn her wings on backwards-what a clutz, but then when I showed my hubby the pattern he said anyone could of made that mistake..I’m like yer really being sarcastic (yes I was).
On the pattern sheet of Carmens body piece where it has the wing position it says blanket stitch between the dots.(well I saw broken lines).well that's what I did kinda LOL..I stitched around the broken lines...oh my this Carmen can now fly backwards...I wonder if I will be the only ninny to do this..
Aw well my Carmen is unique she can fly backwards…
Cheers Vickie

Hi Vickie, the chicky looks great. At least she won't be able to fly away.
Carmen is gorgeous - don't let her hear anything contrary, she might get a complex!! ;-)
lol! She is a cutie, even if she does fly backwards :P xox
What a cute little chick!
cheers Julz
