I can't believe that I managed to get this much sewing done considering how crazy busy the month has been along with the tendonitis in my wrist acting up.

| Clockwise L to R: Matching child and doll dresses: McCall's 6875, Cardigan: OOP Butterick 5760, Knit dress: Vogue 9101, Knit dress: OOP Vogue 8939, Angel Costumes x 4: OOP McCall's 2340, kAtheRine Tilton jacket: Butterick 6253, and Empire-waist top: OOP Vogue 8118. |
And there was mending done as well, adding trim and replacing elastic to one of the already-made angel costumes, as well as hemming up a pair of pants for Papa R. Sad to say, he's been waiting a while for the pants to be hemmed.
RTW Fast:
I will admit to doing some RTW shopping this month. A pair of cotton Elita knickers, they happen to be an allowed item on the RTW list so I'm not going to sweat it. Besides, they are very comfortable and I haven't found cotton knit of that quality in my fabric store travels. Same can be said for the merino wool shawl I found with the funky sixties themed print. So, I'm going to forgive myself on this one as well.

Happy Sewing!
I don't know how you keep track of your stash, if I tried I think my brain would explode. Love that dark grey blouse!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I keep item stats and then just add them up at the end of the month and keep a running total until the end of the year just to freak myself out over the amount of fabric I've added to the stash. I really must stop hitting the fabric stores.
