Thanks all! I relaunch this thread whenever I need just a bit of a push for the next project or for the restart on a less inspired project, like a repair. Adonis, while waiting for the last bit of varnish to go on the baseboards & floors in the sewing room, is shoved into a corner of the LR. He's languishing among some boxes with 3 hats on his neck-stub. Also in the LR, Euphrosnia is tragically mismatched wearing an black silk taffeta Elizabethan skirt (needs a hem) and the bodice to a burgundy Victorian gown, being repaired. Meanwhile at the sewing machine is a replacement waistband for a Dickens Faire dress. The 3 heads are in a box. Repairs & remodelling happens!
The year of "no new projects, only finishing & fixing" continues. This was my costume New Years Resolution this year. The only "new" projects I've allowed myself are those made from scraps that are already in the house. (Really, it has to be a scrap, not just something in the stash.) It's been hard, but I've been very successful in getting some projects, including a few that languished 3 years, 4 years or more. In the spirit of true confessions, I did have one bit of backsliding... the black silk taffeta listed above. --cin Cynthia Barnes cinbar...@gmail.com On Tue, Oct 4, 2011 at 8:39 PM, Paula Praxis <praxis_...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Everytime this thread comes up you guys blow me away with your talent, > creativity and diversity.
