not that I can't get out, but this weekend I just found myself in a precarious place that I call stuck. I had a really hard time trying to decide on what my next project was going to be. Mind you, this doesn't happen often because it just works out that I have so many sewing projects planned that the process usually flows pretty smoothly. During my last frenzy I cut out three tops and a dress. The results of that cutting frenzy has kept me busy for two weeks - I put the finishing touches on this Butterick wrap dress on Friday night.
So by Saturday I needed to make a decision on my next sewing projects, and just couldn't come up with any ideas. I finally decided to give New Look 6936 a try. I was able to get this dress done in a day as it went together easily and without a hitch.
The Spring Month of Tops Sew-a-long is in its final week. Initially, I committed to making 4 tops - but I was able to get 5 done. I'm now thinking that I might be able to squeeze in one more top this week. So I cut it out today and hope to complete it by the weekend....

I have lots of next projects, I just don't seem to have as much time. It is sort-of like the kid whose eyes are bigger than his stomach! I am trying to phrase it to fit my sewing life, but it just isn't working for me.
ReplyDeleteCute dresses! I have so many projects going on that I get stuck on which one to complete and work on... or start a new one. I've been working on 2 tops, but I don't think I can get both of them completed this week... hopefully at least one. Have an awesome week! :)
ReplyDeleteI particularly like your blue and white floral dress. It looks like a good pattern too. I just realised that I sewed 2 tops this month. I could add them to your Spring top month!
ReplyDeleteI love the print of the first dress!
ReplyDeleteThe spring New Look dress looks really good. Gotta love knit dresses that go together so quick! :)
ReplyDeleteThis pattern is a winner! I really like fabric you chose for the first dress.

ReplyDeleteHoney, you have a way of getting it all done. You are definitely cranking the garments out. I LOVE these 2 dresses. Nice job!!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I totally love all the dresses you are making right now. I am jealous. Second of all, don't worry about my package. I have plenty on my plate. Third, did you get the one I sent you? The seam allowances are 1/4 inch. What? Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThose are really cute dresses!
