Another SONP entry!
More dresses! More skirts! I made another entry for the Summer of No Pants. SONP 2013 has another week to go. Another week before Summer officially starts.

Ah Summer! Dress
Ah Summer is definitely here! I don’t go by the calendar when it is already reaching upper 90s. It counts. So I made myself a new summer dress. I inherited this fabric and kept it stashed for a few years. I think it came from my husband’s acting teacher’s neighbor? Who knows. People give me fabric. That’s totally fine with…

It is Kids Clothes Week!!

But all the kids’ costumes were purchased this year. Bad designer! Oh well. So as I mentioned, my friend Linda Bair of…

This isn’t a new thing I just made, however I just finally got everything together and pictures shrunk to web size, so now I can share it with you. Oh, and we’re nearing the end of National Sewing Month. If you haven’t…

Need
I need to sew today. That is all. OK, I’m long winded, so that’s not all. I’ve been desperately needing to sew. I have projects I want to get done, but I’m having trouble getting started. I worked on a backlog of mess that was preventing me from fun last night, so that should help. But I’m trying to relocate…
