here we go a blogging, as a New Year's resolution/schedule tightener/and general improvement of process, I have decided to join in an online sewalong.
Vintage Sewalong of 2011
couple of additions and self governing rules I am adding for myself:
* I sew from vintage patterns all the time, as most of my fairly large collection is vintage, so I cannot choose a pattern I have already used.
* I am always sewing costumes, so this cannot be a burlesque or Rocky Horror
* this can be a costume compliment for pre and post performance
* this can be a photoshoot or public appearance costume
* I will make a muslin (this is in the guidelines) but I never do this step
* I must post at least 5 times (includes finished and choosing pattern/fabric steps) - I never post anything anywhere - and I need to do th is for several things.
Hopefully, I will end up with an exciting new outfit, and I will improve some of my technical skills - since there will be documentation, and I will work slower than I usually do.
and now - to the pattern bins......
