2019 Goals
Okay, my last post was maybe a little somber, but I swear this post will be way more upbeat. I am actually super excited about this year. Matt and I have dubbed 2019 “The Year of Getting Shit Done”. You know, all of the little nagging things that have been on our to-do lists forever. For him, it’s exhibiting his paintings and for me it’s a lot of what’s listed below. This is the year we have vowed to finally check some of those things off the list! In fact, I have already started. Goal #1: Video As of this posting, I am 4 weeks into an “Intro to Video” class…

2018 Year in Review
In 7 years of this blog, I have only missed one “Year in Review” and that was last year. I also didn’t write a goals post, so we don’t have to talk about how far I got with my goals. There were a lot of things going on at the beginning of 2018, as life tends to do: lingering job burnout (from a job I had just quit), health problems (exacerbated and ignored because of that job), the loss of a friend to suicide and the subsequent feelings of instability and depression that occurs related to all of the above. I just DID NOT HAVE IT IN ME to do…

Victory Patterns Chloe Dress
Order Pregabalin Online After I finished my Ellsworth Coat, something must have shifted—maybe it unblocked my sew-jo—because I have been completing projects left and right since then! Like the Ellsworth Coat, this un-blogged make is also from last October, but it’s what I made at last year’s Camp Workroom Social Dressmaking class (the Ellsworth Coat was made in the Jacket Making class the year before, but took me a year to complete). This one is the Victory Patterns Chloe Dress by the lovely Kristiann Boos. This is an example of a pattern that I probably never would have picked on my own, but surprisingly have ended up loving. It has a lot of…

Clarke Pullover
I just realized that (according to Ravelry) I have been knitting for over six years now! You would think I would have gotten faster in that time, but for some reason I’m still a pretty slow knitter. I must be getting slightly faster though, because I knit a Clarke Pullover by Jane Richmond in less than my normal average of a year! It’s probably only partially the speed at which I knit, but also the frequency. Lately, I have been sewing more than I have been knitting, so that could be part of it. Anyway, as I always say, ain’t nothing like a deadline, and camp is always a reason…

Ellsworth Coat
Order Tramadol Online Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great holiday season. For the first time in 20 years, I was not working in retail over the holiday season, which means I was able to enjoy some time off. It was lovely and there were actually a couple of sunny days that I took full advantage of to get some blog photos of recent completed projects. One of which is my long awaited Christine Haynes Ellsworth Coat. I’m usually pretty good about finishing a project before starting the next one—I do that so I don’t end up with a bunch of UFOs—but every now and then, a project comes along that takes…

Red Plaid Carolyn Pajamas
https://reachrehab.co.uk/sutton-coldfield/ It’s a Merry Day after Christmas for me! I’ve had some time off for the holidays, so finally had the chance to photograph a few garments that I’ve made recently, including my most recent pair of Closet Case Patterns Carolyn Pajamas! Like I said, it’s the day after Christmas, so that’s why there are no presents under the tree. In our house, we are allowed (let’s be real, it’s a rule I impose) to enjoy the Christmas tree until New Year’s and then New Year’s Day, down it goes. If you celebrate Christmas, how long do you leave the tree up after Christmas? I am always so curious to know…

Nautical Birthday Emery Dress
It’s become a tradition for me to make myself a dress to wear at my annual chicken bingo birthday party and despite how busy I have been this year, I decided I couldn’t break tradition and should sew a dress about a week before the party (this should sound familiar to a lot of you). Thanks to ye old stash, I already had some summery nautical Michal Miller border print fabric in my stash that I had purchased specifically to make a Christine Haynes Emery dress. Details Cut a size 8 at the shoulders and graded to a 12 at the waist. Took shoulders in 1″ Brought up armscye 1/2″ Lengthened bodice…

My Sewing Room
Order Ultram Online After 10 years of living in my house, I finally get the bigger spare bedroom for my sewing room! The story of this room—and why I haven’t gotten to use it until now—is long and boring. It basically involves having roommates and then being too lazy to switch rooms when Matt moved in (and made it his studio/office). The thing is, this room has a bathroom in it, so we had thought for awhile that it should be a guest room. As we have gotten a bit older—and putting people on the couch was starting to seem inappropriate for us and our guests—we finally realized it was time to make…
