Well, I have unpacked (or at least inspected) all of the sewing room boxes and my camera is not among the remains. Hmmmm. I am not the family photographer, but I like having a simple point and shoot camera to document my sewing. Looks like I may have to find a special or sale to replace the missing item. That's the sure way to have it show up...
I have been doing some sewing. Here's my list:
1. Textile Studio Soho Pants--yellow twill for summer. LOVE this pattern and have already done a little morphing to make it a TNT. I used the LH Euro pant front to modify the upper front of this pattern to accommodate a front fly zip. I am planning to make a new pair tomorrow. I've worn the yellow ones to several casual events and have been comfortable and sort of on trend with a bright color slimmer leg pant.
2. LH tank top--white. Just a staple to wear under sheer summer tops.
3. 2 Perfect tees--one in brown knit and one in teal lace knit. The brown knit was a remnant purchased at the LH seminar. It is a different knit--really two layers lightly fused. I did not hem any of the raw edges--just top stitched about 1/4 inch from edge to allow the two layers to separate and roll. I like the look! The teal lace top is also raw edges for sleeve and hem--I did turn and stitch the neck edge.
ETA Item #4--crop pants in tangerine linen from a modified LH pattern. Love the fit and how easy they were to sew!! Bought a coordinating top at H and M and have a cute outfit for hot weather!
I need to keep this list to verify that I am still spending a little time at my hobby!
I am going to meet a fellow sewist for coffee next week--haven't met IRL before, so I'm looking forward to chatting with a new friend.
Happy Mothers Day to everyone! Another good opportunity to remember my dear Mom and thank her for all she did for us. Never a day without thinking of you and missing you...
