Geez, I've been busy! I've been working on a rather large sewing project off and on for about a month now and am less than half finished. It's temporarily on hold while I make a costume for the Spawn. She wanted a Victorian era thingydo (steampunk, whatever that is) complete with bustier, long coat and skirt with pleated ruffle. I've only used sewing patterns three times before so it's a bit of a challenge. I've got the bustier done (it LOOKED like the easiest part - HA! - LIES!) and it turned okayish. Whew! I'll be tackling the coat tomorrow and (fingers crossed) get it knocked out and be able to start on the skirt by the weekend. I really want to get back to my other project, but this needs to take priority in case she needs it for a Halloween party.

If it's actually wearable when it's done, I'll try to remember to post some pics of it here.

Hope all of you are doing well.

Hugs,
