Sewing-NOT!

Can't seem to get myself into the sewing room to sew.

I did take time to find some buttons on Monday for the jacket. Not many choices or places to look for them locally. I did not have 45 minutes to travel to Floyd and another 45 to get back. Lunch time is just not that long.

I also purchased an invisible zipper for my skirt as I did not have any shades of red zippers in stash. Briefly glanced at some fabric as I strolled through JoAnn's but nothing screamed at me to buy it or even look closer. I miss Hancock's fabrics, they just always had a better selection.

Online buying is fun and fabric usually turns out like you expected; sometimes better. But the ability to walk through a fabric store, truly sense the fabric-touch and smell- is so devine.
