prep  — 2 years ago

okay, I pulled the fabric out of the closet, the chair is at the table, got a new lamp so I can see the stitches, and have a pattern to go off of. Somehow I can’t get myself to sit down and make the first cut.

Spring schedule  — 2 years ago

Intended to sign up for classes via community college but none are at a good time slot and/or distance. Waiting for universe to sheppard classes into my life.

curtains  — 2 years ago

The universal beginners’ project: curtains. All hail the straight line.

hip scarves  — 2 years ago

I made two hip scarves for belly dancing last night. Found some jingling coins at the fabric store and some length of flashy ribbon, used old scarves buried in the depths of my closet and stiched it all together. Now I can go “ching chingaching” all day long with a look of smug self-satisfaction.

fast and cheap  — 2 years ago

Made fleece scarves, hats and mittens for pretty much everyone for Xmas. It went fast and was fun to plot out how it would go together. Super-satisfying as the fleece is thick enough to hide my meandering stitching and mistakes.

Cooking up plans to make a basic skirt. Bought a pile of lovely fabric for inspiration/destruction.

house  — 2 years ago

Am setting up sewing table the day after I move into my new house. Hell yeah!

sweet success  — 2 years ago

I’ve made two bags! One is a fuzzy iPod carrier and the other a shoulder bag.

Bag  — 2 years ago

Made a bag for my upcoming European tour. It’s a little lopsided but overall will do the trick for holding camera, wallet, etc.
