This project almost cost me my sewing mojo. September was in general a bad month and I’m still recovering from it. One of my problems is that I always have big plans, and as I’ve seen in past months that I could make four projects in a month, I wanted …
Month: September 2013
Completed: Calimero

I don’t know if you remember an old TV show for kids called Calimero. I confess I didn’t watch this during my childhood since the first series was too early for me and the second too late (I was already a teenager with other things in mind). But when Elizabeth …
Bunking off

Yes, I’ve done it. I had sewing class today and I decided that I was not going. My to do list this week is rather large. I thought that since I was home alone I could entertain myself by doing all those things, but it seems not working. I’ve postponed …

Testing again

Completed: Lady Skater Dress

Completed: Miette Cardigan
