Don't Panic

What if I can't make my mother-of-the-bride dress?

I've had a muslin of a Sandra Betzina Vogue bias-cut dress w/matching bolero on Mrs. Dinky since, I think, before Thanksgiving. I guess with the holidays I could expect that I wouldn't have time to sew, what with the wrapping paper bin on my cutting table and all.

But what I just don't have time to get it done?

I've got my eye on a blouse at Avenue. Maybe I could buy it and make a skirt to go with it....

And I saw some verrryy nice shoes there also.

Easter Ensemble

I sewed! I actually sewed! I got this pretty accordian pleated "broomstick" fabric at my first (and only, so far) BABES gathering (BABES is a group of sistah sewists from the bay area who have Pattern Review in common: I've wanted to make it into a skirt for Easter for 2 years and I finally did! Here it is: I've lost 58 pounds over the past 10 months and this is the first thing I've sewed since I started my diet (Atkins). To go with the skirt I bought a knit top (in the misses department, not the Women's department!) and to complete the outfit my sweet girls gave me a gift certificate for a pedicure so I have matching toenails!

Cozy Purple Pop of Color

Cozy purple throws for snuggling!  Adds some color  to the living room.  Thick fleece trimmed straight with rounded corners.  I tried some overcast stitches with my Juki however I couldn't get the look I wanted so I pulled out my serger. Gosh it's been, like 2 years since I used it but luckily it worked (I've had it for quite awhile but I'm still kinda afraid of it 😜).
