Sew U

I am SO excited!! I've been carrying this book around with me everywhere, reading every last bit. I've been taking it with me on the bus to and from work and even though I know I shouldn't read on the bus because I get sick, I take it out and look at the pictures anyway and plan out what I'm going to make.




What I find so exciting and what I'm discovering is the idea that with a basic pattern and some tweaking and altering, one could in theory, make sooo many different garments!! I'm trying to keep my imagination under control and start with the basic patterns provided in the book, (I have a tendency to jump ahead with all kinds of brilliant modifications and then get overwhelmed and turned off) but o my goodness it's so exciting.

I've picked out three shirt fabrics and notions and I have two days off to play--woo HOO! Can you feel the excitement? It really doesn't take much for me, this is it. Tonight, it's just Marvin and I since Chris is out at a friend's, so we're going to have some chili (and chicken, beef and seafood blend) and start planning out some shirts.



I hope you all have a good weekend. Anyone in Halifax, hopefully you don't have to be outside, it's crazy out there. If you're in san Fransisco, my thoughts go out to you. I don't understand how oil spills like this are STILL happening with our level of technology. It's incredibly sad and disgusting.
