(no subject)

My pants were TOO BIG!! I should have tried them on when the directions said to. I had already stitched it down and finished the legs and pinned up the hems. Dang it!! On Friday (Canada Day) I ripped the elastic stitching out, pulled out almost 2" and stitched it down again. Then I tried them on to determine hem length and finished that too. And I still need to make adjustments. I have too much room in the hip now (sigh), leading me to believe that maybe I just need extra in the crotch area and NOT on the outside area? That'll be for the next version, I guess.

I also tried on and pinned up the Smooth Sailing pants i made last year, but forgot it all downstairs to try on in my room where the only full length mirror currently is. Then I decided to clear of my table a bit and pinned up and pressed the Edwardian skirt, and spent some hours stitching it down which sitting on the couch. It just needs closures now.

Started a top, but it requires interfacing in the waistband, and I don't have any. I will make a trip to the store soon.

Last night I had the worst sleep, including dreams about having to talk to my mother. Hoping to sleep better tonight.
