The other day, my mom says to me: "If you haven't called in a while, and you haven't updated your blog, I know you're busy with school so I don't worry." Ah, the wisdom of mothers! How right she is. I
have been very busy with school. I'll be honest, being on the job market is definitely an emotional roller-coaster. But despite all that, I have been sewing, so over the next few days I'll try my best to get the blog up to date.
So, stay tuned for posts about:
- the Burda low-back sheath dress, 1-2010 #125, which I successfully completed in time to wear to a wedding on Thanksgiving weekend
- my Lady Grey coat, which now has sleeves and a collar. I'm hoping to hem this week and be working on the lining by the weekend
- my second version of McCalls 6163, which I maintain is an awesome wardrobe-builder in disguise
- my next project, a wool blazer. I'm hoping I can continue to build my tailoring skills on this project, and I've asked for more tailoring books and supplies for Christmas ;-)
On a purely personal note, the Mr. is graduating from college this weekend! Go baby go! Returning to college as a "non-traditional" student, and balancing school with a job and adult responsibilities, is an impressive feat. On Sunday, my man will graduate Summa Cum Laude with his B.B.A. in Computer Information Systems, and I couldn't be more proud of him :-)
