Shapely Schmapely

**Warning**Premenstrual Rant**

I don't think the shapley shirt was meant to fit me. The b**bs don't fit right. It doesn't seem to hang right. The neck looks small. I can't make it look right. I'm going to finish this one, but I'm not ever making it again.

All I'm looking for is a basic, semi-fitted shirt pattern that can be made up in a stretch woven that fits me and that feels comfortable. Why is that so f***ing hard to do?

All I am is round everywhere. My right side doesn't match my left side. My upper front is a size I don't-even-know and whatever size it is I always have to add for the ole' b**bs. My upper back is a size 12 and balloons to about a size gazillion below the hips. Very attractive, NOT!

Hmmph.

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 😜).

Crafty Stirrings

My sewing stuff has been packed up for quite awhile and I miss it! It was packed up to make room for a season of extended visits by family which we have truly enjoyed so it was a worthy trade-off. Family visits will be done in a few weeks and in the meantime we decided that we'll be moving into a different house a few weeks later, so my sewing and craft things (other than sewing-related stuff I have just a few jewelry-making and scrap-booking supplies) will remain packed until it's arranged in our new abode. Focusing on family and transition decisions has taken up my mental space so it's just now, as I begin creating the vision of our next home I'm looking forward to having a sewing space again.
