Primark for Microfibre Blankets, Hoodies, Snood, List of Things to Make

ACHIEVED TODAY:

- visited Primark and found incredible soft microfibre blankets for £5 (125cm x 150cm) need 2 to line a hoody, with around 150cm x 60-70cm left over. They have these in many colours, and also in Christmas patterns- MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO VISIT PRIMARK AFTER CHRISTMAS AND BUY CHRISTMAS PRINT BLANKETS IN THE SALE TO MAKE ONSIES FOR NEXT YEAR!

- Made 2 more hoodies, will be keeping one for myself to wear at markets. 3 to finish off now.

- Finished snood- much happier with it today!

- Finished black and white panda hat, but the eyes need lining (white eyes on white wool don't stand out enough)

- Bought enough elastic and lace to bosh out a load of fancy pants

- Bought fur to line hoods

- Started putting elastic and lace onto spools. They're giving them out free in Fabricland- will go back for more and put all my long lengths of lace and elastic onto spools. I'd like to have a whole shelf of spools eventually! Would be good to hang a pole and have the spools threaded along it.

THINGS TO REMEMBER:

- Primark for microfibre fleece blankets... go back after Christmas!

- Always need to check what I have before I go fabric shopping- I keep buying things I already have! Don't buy any more cream fleece- I have LOADS now!

TO DO:

I HAVE MATERIALS NOW TO MAKE:

- fancy pants and fancy pants kits- need to go through fabric bags and pick out fabrics. Also need to make more packaging labels
- hoods
- snoods
- hoodies
- ski hats
- foxy hats
- I have eyes for 2 more large panda hats

TO DO TOMORROW:

- pack van
-finish hoodies
-make tissue paper pom poms in christmas colours
-buy packed lunch
