What Else Are You Making?

we found a beautiful sea foam silky fabric for the dress. also a netting with sparkles in the same color. for the contrast fabric. she is really big on sparkley. it is a lot of fun and yes you are right, we are making memories.

Table runner I'm crocheting didn't look good hanging down from the windowsill as I planned, but it will make a pretty placemat for the tray I use to hold my laptop.

As a result it's almost done. The stitch is called "spike stitch" (I never knew the name, even though I've used it before.)

I bought a few new shirts, and somehow in trying to match them with shorts, found I have several cutoffs that need shortening, so I ended up with a good size stack of mending to work on next.

while i am still waiting for the pattern i ordered on line. i got bored today and cut out a top for the almost two year old, lilly. very simple, should finish it up tomorrow. only has four pieces to it. then has pockets which are super simple, will put rick rack on the pockets.

See how finishing up a project (the latest dresses) fires you up for more? Keep up the momentum.

how clever of you. i am devoted to that site, so many good ideas. couple of days ago i printed the entire tutorial on the tattered flowers. will use on aubrey dress. i am not happy with the tattered edges. will try to make them more of a finished look. a case of two great minds thinking alike. lol.

I wondered before if you were on their mailing list. I wanted to forward this one because several of them are different and very pretty.

Their site is my go to place for sewing questions.

putting finish touches on lilly's little dress. i got the pattern yesterday for the big project. princess dress. it has lots of steps but none are all that hard. i am not going to line it and that will make it easier. waiting for the new scissors. that i know am getting for my b'day. think i need a nice sharp edge for the satin.

what, pray tell, is a red egg and ginger party?

I ran out of personal projects (non honey-do-this) so I'm going to start a UDS build this weekend.

Yes, what IS that? And roadfix, what is a UDS build??

It stands for Ugly Drum Smoker. This pictured here isn't mine but that's what they all essentially look like. You convert a food safe 55 gallon drum into a smoker by installing intake valves at the bottom and using Weber grates and a lid.

Ohhh. Reminds me of R2D2, but I don't think it's ugly at all.

Last winter my 55-gal. plastic drum became a rain barrel. It is, if not ugly, unpretty at best. A URB.

They can always be made that way...))

My friends are Chinese and this is a fete they have for newborns. Little Peter was born in Feb so his grandparents are hosting this event for him.

tomorrow is p day. princess bridal dress. airel to be exact. lots of parts but none than appear to hard. just a tiny bit scary though. have never sewn with slippery satin before. so wish me luck, that my skills are up to the task.

Ohh, make sure you have the right kind of needle in the machine. I ruined a lovely piece of fabric with the wrong needle.
