So yes, I fell off the planet again. I promised you a dress. And t-shirts. But then the dress gave me such headaches that it needed a time-out. And the t-shirts have a pattern traced out but no more. Sigh.
This month has been stressful beyond belief and sewing is hard to do when I’m tired. I realize this has always been the biggest challenge for me…I go go go all day long, get the boys to bed and then it’s all I can do to drag some garter stitch out, turn on Pandora and try to stay awake for a few more rows. The weekends seem to be the time I get some real sewing done, and I’m hoping for a maraton this weekend.
In the meantime, if you need inspiration, I’ve been flipping through Simple Modern Sewing the past few days. What is your latest inspiration?
My go-to sewing books are Sew What Skirts, Sew Serendipity and One Yard Wonders. I’ve just read a book about altering skirt patterns that was very helpful as well.
