A spot of sewing

Hi all I have been a tad busy this week we are part of great group called Special Friends which is a group for Disabled children and their families.  My son has aspergers and this group has been so good for him and our other 2 children.  Anyway I havent had time to do much crafting and I have been desperate to make some hammocks for my guineas so I thought I would show you the end result of my sewimg machine session.
