The year in review - 2011

Now would probably be a good time to review 2011 both sewing and otherwise.
  • It's hard to believe I had three surgeries last year.
  • Two on my knee and one on my breast.
  • I got a new car!
  • Made 16 dresses.
  • I became obessed w/linings.
  • Of the 16 dresses more than half were lined.
  • Made 5 jackets
  • Only lined one.
  • Didn't like one of the jackets.
  • Has a matching dress, didn't love it.
  • If I don't like them next Spring they will be relocated to the local thrift store!
  • Made two tunics...only wore one.
  • I made Vogue 1250 twice and hated it both times.
  • One I re-made into McCalls 6319, the other was remade into Vogue 8685.
  • Great saves.
  • I learned to make bras. Not just any bras but bras that fit me! Yippeeee!
  • I've made 3 so far.
  • I also made panties and have made 6 pairs so far.
  • Only made one pair of slacks. Hmmm. Wonder what was up with that?
  • That was unusual but I know why.
  • The weather was hotter than fish grease all summer.
  • 'Nuf said.
  • I can make an FBA on any style blouse, dress, or jacket.
  • I think I'm a sewing genius!
  • Hands down my favorite pattern of the season was Vogue 1179!
Here are some of my favorite looks from 2011:







Who knows where my sewing will lead me this year. I'll just go with the flow. Thanks for stopping by.
