I got to sew today! It has been a long time. The sewing wasn’t fancy (just pillow cases), but it sure felt good. My Christmas gifts are done! It was so nice to iron fabric, use a rotary cutter, and turn on the machines. I love the sound of sergers and sewing machines. To make something out of flat fabric, to have mastery over the process was very nice. My kids remind me that I get cranky when I don’t sew. It would be nice to do that every day, but that might be a thing of the past.
My next project will be some more PJ’s for K. Then a blouse for me. It would be really nice to have a well fitting blouse pattern. One that I could wear over t-shirts for work. There is so much great quilting cottons out there. Instead of seeing quilts, I see shirts. The fabric that I am really intrigued with is called Full Moon Forest by Moda.
All of the ornate designs make owls. Very cool looking. Maybe not a blouse for work, but it is certainly an interesting design.
