No Sewing Going On Here

This work week has been crazy! Time at work is non-stop; meetings, reports, spreadsheets, more meetings. Today I had to have a mammogram and then the afternoon was my first physical therapy session regarding my left knee. In between was work.

DH fixed us dinner tonight and I was just too tired to go to the sewing room to begin pinning up the hem in my dress. I am sitting in my chair with laptop writing this.

I did receive a new pattern in the mail today from an independent pattern designer. I think this tee has great potential and I saw a tutorial the designer developed with a neat modification to this tee pattern, adding a ruffle insert in the center.

I am putting myself on a pattern diet as I have purchased quite a few in the past few months. I am also planning a pattern sale soon. I need to scan or shoot photos of the patterns I have set aside. More about this later.

  1. I know I really don't need anymore patterns...even though I took a peak at your pattern link. I just looked at my pattern stash and my bins are overflowing. Hmmm...couple of months ago I didn't have this problem. I need to get reorganized again and put things away so I can be more productive with sewing.

    I hope you find time to get back into your sewing room.

  2. That is a nice tee pattern. Looks like it would be one that's easy to customize for pretty much any look you wanted.

    Hope you get some sewing time again soon!

  3. How long will you be in physical therapy? I hope you heal soon. :):):)

    I also hope you get some sewing done. Isn't it horrible when you want to sew so badly but stuff gets in the way? Ugh, I hate that feeling.

    Hugs,
    Lory

  4. I'm looking forward to your review on this t-shirt pattern. I've been looking for a fun but easy pattern; kwik sew etc...and I would love to support an independent source if it's something I'd like.
