1st Pics

January 3, 2008 in sewing | 3 comments

Hi all. I just downloaded my first batch of pics. Not nearly as interesting as I originally remembered, but hey. It is a start!

I organized on Sunday. Now our house is spic and span and we started off the New Year right… Didn’t we? Okay so deciding none of the images I took were worth the effort to upload and since Eric, my IT guy aka hubby, isn’t around to help me figure out how resize the image in iPhoto–am I dumb?**added 1/4–Turns out I’m not so dumb. You have to do it when you export the photos.** There will be no photos. But I promise. Soon.

Also, went to the library today for the 5 or 6th time since November–it is my new addiction. I think I may be a snob or something. I went to pick them up–4–yes, I may not read them all the way through, but I couldn’t decide and the guy behind the counter was not exactly cordial. I’m keeping him in a job, right? Or am I checking out books other people want to? Or is it because I requested them online so I didn’t have to traipse all over to collect them and could instead just walk to the desk. Sigh. I think I take things way to personally. Welcome to my world.

Peace,
^-^

Project Blogway?

January 3, 2008 in sewing | 4 comments

I ran across an awesome idea via Final Fashion. Anyone else interested in a swap of sorts–and not the “sewing with a plan” variety of swap. I already have one item on the docket–a cute baby shower skirt for the most consistently stylish person I know. Her website will be up in final form soon–her goal is Feb. 1, but for now, go check it out. So if anyone else is game, I am up for a February project. How fun is this?

Also, I got my very own stylish digital camera for Christmas so more photos of my stuff will be up soon. I think I’m off the baby present kick–until all my gal pals plan for number 2!

I cut out the first muslin–fabric sample–of my dressform. It is a bit large, but it is a huge step and hopefully I’ll be stitching up the final soon! Fun, fun!

Peace
^-^
