Sewing again.

Well, I got out some new fabric and my favourite pattern but then, while I was digging through the piles of material and I realised I have three- no, four outfits cut out that need only putting together. No worries. Let's see. A blue blouse is cut out, silky kind of fabric. Two skirt and top sets; a mix and match. A solid rust coloured and a solid beige jersey fabric, but that will be fine. They'll need a lining, at least on the skirts. Oh, look. Here's that white Egyptian cotton sheet I've never used. That will be enough for lining on both skirts and the bodice on the tops. great. also this blue corduroy dress, pinnies, really. Needs a blouse under it but how about that: I started by finding the dark blue, silky blouse. Great. Three outfits, mix n match to make, really, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 or 8 outfits. Not too shabby.

Ok. Well one whole day to get organised. Another day to cut out the lining. today both skirts, with lining, are assembled. Need some detail for the waistline. A belt or sash. Maybe a rope belt. I'll sleep on it and decide in the morning. What fun.
