Quick Post and off to the Y

Just wanted to post that all patterns have been sent except for one.  Waiting for mailing address.  I hope everyone enjoys their patterns.  I plan another giveaway soon, so keep checking back.

I have hit a  sewing mojo block again.  I have a lovely cotton lace skirt cut out with lovely coordinating lining and came to the realization that I really need a cotton lining as the lace skirt needs more body to support it for the style skirt I cut out.  Hopefully JoAnn's  has what I need and will pay a visit today to see.

I have a tendency toward OCD when it comes to sewing projects and just did not want to start another project until this was complete.  I may have to just move on with something else until I can get the right lining.  I have so many patterns in my line up and fabric as well.

Off to the Y to exercise and make my doctor happy.  My cholestrol is to high again, yet not enough to warrant medication.  I somewhat disagree but with exercise I can and have gotten it down before. Getting older sometimes sucks.

Second skirt cut out to sew

I cut out Vogue 8750 skirt pattern on Sunday and have not had a moment to sew this week.  Tonight after pizza dinner with DH, I cut out a second skirt-Simplicity 2413.  I just found out that it has been moved to the OOP's at Simplicity. 

I used fabric from my stash, striped black and white stretch woven that I acquired in a fabric bundle from Fabric Mart perhaps two years ago-maybe longer than two.  The stripes will run vertical for the main body of the skirt with the stripes running horizontal for the skirt band at the bottom.

Of course, I get my sewing mojo back when I have to travel Sunday for a business trip.  It is just a one night away trip.  The meeting begins early afternoon on Sunday so only have a small window of sewing opportunity on Saturday.

The weather turned much cooler today so I find myself ready to begin the fall/winter sewing.  I pulled a few more fabrics out of my collection and coming up with some potential ideas for sewing.
More later.
