I am officially a terrible blogger...nearly a three month hiatus. I have been pretty busy though, a lot has been happening (all good things) lately. Work has certainly been keeping me busy, it has also been stifling my creativity, but I am now determined not to lose it. Don't get me wrong, I love my job! I find myself spending all my free time doing everything I can to read up on work..believe it or not I'll spend my free time at work...for fun. Clearly I love working at a museum.
I recently found out I'm going to be moving soon! I could not be more thrilled about that. My future roommate is constantly talking of the excitement of watching me work on all my sewing projects and wants to have an entire area dedicated just to my sewing stuff. Needless to say I'm glad I have a roommate that supports my hobby :)
A few weeks ago I did manage to whip out a dress from no where...It was late I couldn't sleep so I just decided to sew because I missed it so much. This was the result: I rather love this dress.
Back to moving out...in my cleaning and throwing out stage of the packing process I found some more of my grandmothers old sewing patterns. I could not have been more thrilled! Admittedly I did steal quite a few of them (it seems as though the second I get rid of things I don't need to pack, I replace it with something else!). I found this pattern...well I guess I should say I found the package. Unfortunately there was no pattern inside, just the packaging...but I absolutely love this dress and decided tomorrow I'm making a trip to the fabric store and I'm going to try my best to recreate something similar (I would go now, but alas...they are closed).
Now, where is my wandering parakeet?
