I’m on vacation! That is, I’m in St. Augustine, Florida, with my mom, sister, as well as child (and two aunts who show up today), as well as my sibling as well as his fam this weekend. So far I have inhaled many of the Atlantic Ocean, neglected to pack adequate get in touch with lenses, been terrified by animatronic instructors, as well as responded to far as well numerous work emails! however still: vacation!
On getaway I tend to believe that I will have TONS as well as tons of time to do project-y stuff, forgetting that the whole point of getaway is to refrain from doing stuff. So far I have only done a couple infant projects, like lastly transferring my iTunes library from an outside drive to my new laptop, as well as tidying up my Pinterest boards a wee bit, as well as minor-league things like that. I’m likewise reading this interesting book about the Mitfords.
Another thing I always do on getaway is believe of new as well as interesting jobs for when I get BACK, which so far include:
— making one more 9929 as well as covering it in small multicolored buttons (<– I will never do this, I really dislike stitching on buttons, however it would make an outstanding dress). — choosing on a maximum number of patterns I can own, as well as culling the rest ruthlessly (any tips as to what’s a great number?). And, oh, by the way, I have bought three patterns on the internet because being on getaway … — hiring somebody on TaskRabbit to take photos of whatever I’ve sewed however don’t have photos of yet, because this taking the darn photos is something I always put off doing. I will validate this by calling it an “insurance record” for when my home eventually burns down from me leaving the iron on. — doing a tutorial video (probably with my son’s help, he’s extremely great at making videos) of each step included in making a shirtdress. I understand there are tons of things I do when I sew that aren’t in the pattern directions … as well as most likely much more practical things I might be doing, if only I understood about them (which the comments on the video would assist with). — figuring out exactly how to make the vintage Pattern Wiki have much better classification search, so you can browse for “1960s” as well as “Peter pan collar” together. I am now taking bets for when these jobs really happen. anybody want to put their money on 2017? Share this: Twitter Facebook Like this: Like Loading...
