Hammies!

Okay so I actually made the tailors hams! They are not exactly what I wanted but I'm please with how they turned out! 


First I consulted the pattern I found on Google!


Next I gathered some scrap fabric and started cutting! (Freehand! Ain't nobody got time for actual pattern peices!) 


Until I ended up with two sets of these ! 

Next I stitched and stuffed and stitched again and Voila! 


Two tailors hams (that look a bit more like tailors sausages!) for me and my big sister! Now we should be set for starting to make our coats! After we've both cut the pattern that is! 

A few things about this project:
• if I did them again I'd do them fatter!
• I stuffed them with a mixture of stuffing and scrap fabric, they look a lil lumpy but I'm hoping it will smooth out! 
• I was very carefull to choose fabrics that would be okay when ironed! 
•I hand sewed the bottoms shut
• the floral print is my sisters (I so should have done this as an Xmas present!) and the striped one is mine (I didn't catch the edge properly so this one already needs some TLC

Anybody else made any sewing time savers? 

Much love
