We are back!

We arrived back in Atlanta on Sunday at 4:30am EST! I know right, redder than red-eye!
I will be posting pics today just have to get them from hubby's laptop to mine. I only got around to making BWOF 07-2009 124B & the Simplicity cardigan, that I love so much and will be making another very soon. I feel like I'm leaving something out! Oh well maybe I'll remember when I'm posting this evening.

Quick sewing update before vacay!

Hi All,
Just wanted to let you all know that have sewing my butt off for my vacation this coming weekend.
So far I've made Simplicity 2603 in a cream lightweight knit, the cardigan and the tank. I'm currently sewing BWOF 07-2009 124B in a fushica and white knit and next up is BWOF 07-2009 124A in a white with purple print knit and after that is Simplicity 2579 View C in a pink and white poly blend. This past weekend I was trying to make a pair of shorts an OOP Butterick pattern and I'm having too many fitting issues to where I may not make them at all. I'm also going to see if I have some time to make another Simplicity 2603 in a moss green knit.

All pictures will taken in sunny (and maybe windy) California, will try and post them as I take them but hey I'll be on vacay so no promises!

Until next time!

Looky what came in the mail today!

I love international sewing magazines especially when they aren't printed in English (don't know why just do).

Now I may have found a new one

this is the site that I frequently buy my Knipmode mags from is now selling F.I.M.I.

Here is the site that I get them from, the cool thing about the F.I.M.I. mag is that it's like BWOF, Knipmode &Ottobre.

Client Dresses & Skirt done!

I made a few casuals dresses for a couple of ladies.
Here they are modeling and a few close ups of the details.
Sorry I took quick and candid shots.

Going on vacation in two weeks and I can't wait. Now the question is if I can make a few quick items before I leave.

I'll be in the SF Bay area on Aug 8, what is there to do out there?

I ran out of steam!

I have so much going on right now that I just can't do it all, especially this weekend.
Those five dresses are going to have to wait right now. One is almost complete however I don't like it. Mom says it looks ok but she did just say "ok" and not "cute". You know the difference as well as I do and that's why I'm going to finish (I promise) but it probably won't be worn except for the picture to post. I have 3 dresses and a skirt that I'm working on for clients.
That's pretty much what I have going on right now. Just moody right now (DH, no comment!? ok??). Not sleeping all that great (stupid hair rollers).

I'll post everything when I can.
