More Sewing Progress

No matter how small the accomplishment, sewing progress IS sewing progress.

I have been working on New Look 6343, ever so slowly.  I am using the lines of the black and white view for both the front and the back:

I recently cut out all the pieces.  Today I pinned the lower skirt pieces, and they are now ready to be sewn:

I will post my progress.

Tuna Salad

Hubby made tuna salad for lunch:

Here's what's in it:

• large can of tuna
• chopped tomatoes
• chopped green onions
• cilantro
• lemon grass paste

Yummm-Meee!

Green Eggs and Ham

Yesterday, I had green eggs and ham for breakfast:

Here's what's in it:

• two boiled eggs, chopped
• one piece of bacon, cut into pieces
• one small packet of guacamole

It was good because I like boiled eggs with guacamole.

A Little Sewing Progress Today

I finally finished cutting out the current project. It is the New Look 6343 skirt pattern.  I made it before (click here) in a jersey fabric called Jet from Joann's.  It is a really cheap-o, thin knit, but I was able to make it without hemming it.

I am now making this skirt in a Navy ponte de roma knit, which has more body and is altogether a classier fabric.  I have lengthened the skirt by five inches, and I also plan to hem it.  I have taken pictures of the current project in progress.  You can see the pictures and my comments by clicking on the picture below.

Enjoy!

Happy New Year! -- and Early Version of a Free Tutorial

One of my goals for 2012 is to publish all my picture tutorials on my blog.  I will start with the Updated Classic Pillow Case.  It is currently in one of my Picasa web albums.

The picture is the link to that album.  I would appreciate any input you have.
