3rd Annual Pattern Review Sewing Bee Round 2

Oops, so I'm not the best blogger.  Whatever...

Here's the photos of my jacket.

Whoop Whoop Whoop! PR Weekend Time!

Tomorrow I head up to Chicago with Melody, Judith and Charlene, otherwise known as Ody, JAS, and CharKS on PatternReview.  We're taking the train up from KC, a 7+ hour ride and I have my knitting ready.

My bags are semi-packed and I still have nothing to wear.  I've done a lot of sewing recently, yet they are still pieces that don't go with anything.

I definitely feel fashioned challenged.

Well, as it's too late to worry and I don't like feeling stressed, I'll just accept it as it is for now.

But, when I get back and start sewing again (since I know this is going to be highly motivating) I think I'm going to work on outfits.  I have "pinned" a bunch of things I've like over the years on Pinterest, so I'm going to work with things I've liked, and then try to recreate them.

That's my plan at least...I also have baby stuff to start working on as I'm expecting 2 grandsons by this Fall.  They will be my first and I have lots of projects to do.

So until next week....happy sewing.

Let me think about it

I've actually had a few people mention "my blog" recently, and to be honest, it's kind of (obviously) not on my mind lately.

I've done a lot of sewing, gobs actually, but I don't know what to write about.

If I make an item and want to remember what I've done, I just tend to write a review for Pattern Review.  It's pretty funny to go back and read old reviews.

So maybe I'll get the blogging bug back, maybe not.  But I still have the sewing bug, and fabric buying bug, and pattern buying bug.

And I'm really looking forward the Pattern Review Weekend in Chicago.  I've never gone to one before.  I'm truly looking forward to meeting all the other sewing enthusiastic women who will be there.  That will give me something to talk about on this blog.

Oh, and I did make my red jeans for the Shopping Spree day.  Till next time around.
