Sewing in July
Thu Jul 11 2013

    Oh! I've had a happy day! After doing several weeks of in home piece work, I have a few days off. In my back room… AKA The Room of Requirement, there was a dress that I had cut out eons ago, sitting on top of the sewing machine. Today was the day. It took me four hours to make it, mostly because I lined the whole thing.  I'm VERY happy with how it turned out. Leaf Dress   Leaf Dress2   I am a Jewish girl with Amish tendencies. I won't deny it. I had two other projects in the sewing pile. A dress that was given to me that needed hemming and the bottom part of a dress that had worn out on the neck and sleeves. I put elastic in it and made a skirt. So in one long day.. [from 9:30 till 5:30] I now have three new garments! (Well, maybe that will make up for yesterday when you did almost nothing whatsoever.)

Little Miss Sunshine1 I want a pink dress! Make ME a pink dress! ……ummm,…. please?  :-)   I'll think about it.       lime wild

    Good project. Maybe I should unearth my sewing machine. Poor abandoned item. I would love to see finished items.

    be careful what you post LOL -- we may be sending you patterns to sew up for us! The Friday group is actually going to attempt to meet up (or some of us) at Rubio's tomorrow as we think the weather won't quite melt us. Will be thinking of you! cheers!
