fizzle

Ooops - I seem to have fallen off the wagon here. I havent been sewing much at all. Not very creative. : /
Im still finishing the dress remodel.  I made some silk veils. Have a long to do list, I suppose theres nothing like having a bunch of stuff you have to do to curtail any fanciful thoughts of making anything just for the hell of it.

Thursdays creating was long lengths of fringe for a fancy designer dress I'm remodelling. Not so impressive but very time consuming.  Wednesday evening I drew and scanned in a design for my other blog.

Let there be pants

Still no photos to prove my industriousness.  Yesterday I made a new poster for the rec where I teach. Today I made 2 pairs of dance pants for me. Yes I know I now have 4 new pairs of dance pants.  This is a good thing all my others have holes on the right Buthigh area and look quite bedraggled.

A new plan for the old stuff

Or in some cases the new stuff too.  A photographer friend on Facebook is taking part in this http://365project.org/cmisplon/365/2011-01-16?ref=nf project. Im no photogrpher, being more of a point and clicker but the idea of creating every day appeals to me.

My 365 started a little late - on Sunday to be exact, but Im catching up fast!  I made a pair of gypsey pants, finished a pair of wrap pants and made 2 fringed shawls.  Yesterday I made a pair of dance pants for class.

So the rules are make something every day, the something has to be needlework  inspired, so I can sew something, draw a design or pattern, make jewelry or headresses.  As long as I end up with a finished article that I can photograph. Im to use fabrics and materials that I already have where at all possible.  And thats it! On the cards for today A red velvet.............something. : ))

Photo's will be up as soon as I can get my old camera to talk to my new computer.
