Too busy to sew – aargh!
There are so many things that I want to sew at the moment, and I have no time in which to sew them! I returned to part-time work two weeks ago, and inbetween that and the rest of life, I can barely keep up with household organisation, let alone get anything made. I have this all ready to start:
I’m going to do the same version as the one in the pattern cover photo. I really need lots of new winter clothes – the weather has very quickly become very wintery, and much of what I wore last winter needs to be thrown out. But when, when, when will I find the time to sew!
I’m also about to frog my second attempt at crocheting the sleeves for Clare’s cardigan. At least there is only one sleeve to pull out this time. I’ve finally worked out what I need to do to make it fit the armhole properly and still be the right length. So fingers crossed that the third go will be a success.
So I’d better get off the computer and on to my “to-do” list, which is never-ending.
What pretty fabric! I ‘stumbled’ upon your blog and when you mentioned winter clothing, I was stumped, but then realized you’re in your winter now! Sure hope we see a picture of the finished product? And by the way, love your organized sewing room! I am jealous.
That is great fabric and I love the pattern. I can relate to the not enough time thing. I guess we all can.
Hope you a little time warp somewhere.
winterclothes… brrrr I’m so happy we’re slowly moving towards summerclothers over here!!! I love your fabric though!! Hope you can find some time soon. I guess we all suffer from that.
I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!!! I’m itching to sew for pleasure right now, but am finding it hard to even get time to sew for WORK.
That fabric and the pattern are gorgeous. I can see them on you, looking fabulous….. if only we had about three more days in a week, huh?
that is the crappy thing about those stinking “to dos”…they never go away!
oh, oh! I just cut out the paper pattern of this shirt! I’m making the main pic as well, but modifying the sleeves! Looking forward to seeing yours done! Nice fabric!
Blah , work is necessary I know but sooo over rated.
