yesterday I buckled down and sewed a new skirt. Maybe because I was watching TV at the same time, but it took about 5 hours. I would have listened to an audiobook, but the library didn’t have the book I’m up to in the amelia peabody series. I’d hope that if I weren’t eating nuts and talking on the phone and watching tv it would go a fair bit faster.
\nI used McCall Pattern M3341<\/a> which is a real workhorse – it’s an a-line skirt and I’ve used it to make my purple skirt<\/a> and my fancy holiday party skirt<\/a>. Also on the workhorse list is McCall M3830<\/a> – it’s a good pencilish skirt that I’ve used before as well.<\/p>\n

Here is the fabric for the skirt:
\n\"greyblueskirt\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I used some of the fabric bought from the fabric shop in belleville nj. I still have about 1 yard left of this stuff, and I’ve got two more pieces of fabric left from that shopping trip. I made sure to get matching zippers for the other fabric as well while I was out on sunday, so that’s all set up. now all I have to do is get down to it!<\/p>\n

so, 2007 to date:<\/strong><\/p>\n

bought:<\/strong> pair of pretty wool gloves from target ($4.48) [[which I did sort of need, b\/c I’ve lost one of each glove or mitten or wristers I have in the last 2 months, and also, it’s supposed to be getting cold this week, and also, I’m not allowed to knit for myself until I finish the corn baby.]]<\/p>\n

made:<\/strong> one skirt, desperately needed b\/c my other skirts are getting worn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
