I always wish I had more time to sew, but with working full time and commuting more than 10 hours a week, I never have quite enough time.
In Progress
- Corset for B

Can you tell I have a fondness for pinstripes? I have a tendency to pick up interesting pin stripe slacks from the thrift store, even if they don’t fit, if they look like they have enough fabric to be useable. My original pin stripe cincher was made from a pair of thrifted slacks.
Have I mentioned that I am kind of slow? I see other bloggers cranking out garments every week and I am more likely to take 2-3 weeks or even months to finish something moderately complicated. I think this list will have me busy through the end of the year, and beyond.
If you accidentally make the clothes in my size instead of yours I totally won't complain.
ReplyDeleteI still need to take your measurements.
ReplyDeleteI saw something on etsy that inspired me, so now this list is longer. A corset belt, that, of course, I want to do totally differently. I need to sketch it out so I can get a concrete idea of what I want as well as possible variations.
The fashion scene today is tremendously promising. But, it is not just about attractive models walking the ramp. The fashion industry requires passion, hard work, zeal and dedication.
