Sewing Hiatus

Hi All!!!

I've taken a bit of a sewing break. I've had a lot going on lately and sewing has taken a back seat. I am working on Vogue 1247 skirt in a great red/orange stretch sateen. I'm almost done with it and will post a review shortly. I think I might make another one in black leather. Great skirt!



I have also unintentionally started a fabric fast. The last order I placed was August 10th from FabricMart. Two whole months! I almost blew it too and placed an order yesterday with the "Free Bundle" email. I came to my senses though and cancelled the order. I did it partly because I wanted to keep up the fast and secondly because there is a big move in my near future and I want to de-stash as much as possible.

Tonight I went through some of my fabric and threw away a lot of remnants and am starting a donate pile. If it's decent, I can put it up here for grabs if anyone wants it. I will try to do that in the next couple of months. I need to reduce my patterns too. So keep watch for the giveaways!

Oh yes, please! If you are de-stashing, I'd love a crack at it! Or maybe do some giveaway mystery bundles if there's a lot?

Good luck with your other projects. The good thing about sewing is the sewing machine doesn't get lonely and sulk without attention.

Ah yes. A self imposed fast is what I need. But I'm open to any fabric loveliness that may be a part of a giveaway.
