and now, a word from the sewing room
Jul. 26th, 2006 09:04 amObvious: Boy howdy, am I behind on my sewing. I've gotten most of the repair work done I needed to do, and I'm confident I can finish the reversible gamurra sleeves and 2 chemoose before I leave for Pennsic, but it's seeming likely I'll have to bid tearful farewell to the thought of a new dress.

In other sewing frustration news: last time I was home Mom gave me a shirt/skort set she bought at her skinniest but never wore. I hate skorts but liked the outfit otherwise, so took it with the intention of cutting loose the crotch bit and turning it into a skirt. This I have accomplished at last (not a hard job, just hadn't got the round tuit)... only to find that, though the skirt fits, the top does not. I could starve myself to a skeleton and it would still not fit over my tits. Goddammit.
