It's a good feeling...

To get tasks done that have been hanging around for a while and I haven't got around to yet. Just totally decimated my sewing pile this morning - a few pairs of Joanna's winter pants/skirts that the waist needed taking in and a elastic headband that she had bought with some of her pocket money, that needed to be shortened. Still need to patch Ben's school pants (long ones for winter) and shorten the elastic in his school shoes - I hope to get the pants done before lunchtime (the shoes I can pick up and do anytime as I don't have to get the sewing machine out for them).
