Hey, Internet, welcome to October! I just realized I have quite a few projects lined up for myself and I want to get started on all of them right now! First I have to clean off my work table so I will have some room to work and record.
My younger son has a formal dance coming up at school, so I need to hem his dress pants for that. I may not make a video of that since I’ve done hemming jeans so recently. Hemming these pants shouldn’t be nearly so tedious.
I found a couple of scraps of fabric from a St. Andrews Thrift Store haul that are so perfect together I have to use them to make a zipper pouch. I’ve gotten a few zippers, but never sewn one before. This could be awesome or possibly a disaster. I’m a little excited about it!
I cut that big piece of grandma fabric from a different haul in half so I would have a couple of 2 yard pieces to work with. I’m going to make a nightgown out of one piece. Depending on how it goes, I may make a nightgown out of both pieces. That way, I might end up with two gowns, or one gown and one hard learned lesson. The fabric is much sheerer than any I’ve worked with so far. I think I will have to unbox my walking foot finally.
All of this is on deck for tonight after everyone goes to bed. And possibly after I’ve watched a new movie I’ve been wanting to see. I’ve got Rough Night queued up to see. It looks like for sure a chick flick. And since I’m the only chick in this house, I’ll probably be watching it alone. I’ll let you know how it goes.
