In sewing news, I'm almost finished with a boat-necked long sweater/jumper in my favorite shade of green. It has been very frustrating, I originally thought I could be done with it in a couple of hours but first I had fitting problems with the raglan sleeves, and now my machine seems to have started a mutiny. It really doesn't care for knits, none of the elastic stitches work very well and the twin needle that worked alright until now has made a mess of things now that I'm almost done. Hmpf. I do hope I can finish it tomorrow, I'd rather like a bit of fresh wind in my me-made wardrobe...
In Me-Made March news:
Day 12: refashioned red skirt and you can actually see the lacy black tank top... ;)Day 13: didn't get a pic, I wore the blue polka dot skirt and lacy coral cardi, though
Day 19: lacy tank top and newish black longsleeve. Also, while the T-shirt isn't exactly me-made, I did design the logo in front (for my drama group) so I think it gets to count, too! :)I'm getting a bit fed up with my limited wardrobe options, again... I think I need more skirts. Since I found out that I don't have enough navy twill for my Spring Palette sailor pants, maybe a nautical inspired skirt might not be amiss...
What are your sewing plans for the week?



Hi Alessa,
ReplyDeletegreat progress on the MMM! I am so bad at taking pictures and now cannot find the memory card of the second week :-(
Now, the news: your rotary cutter nomination for Sewing Gadgetmania is finally uploaded on my blog - good luck with the LBD book giveaway!
Oh no, losing a memory card is really frustrating... I've recently lost the little usb-gadget thingy I use to read the tiny memory stick in my cellphone, but fortunately I still have the cable to connect the phone directly to my computer...
ReplyDeleteOh, and thanks for using my nomination! Yay! :)
