Where does the time go?!
Apr. 25th, 2009 06:51 amI had such high hopes for yesterday!
I didn't quite get my shirt finished. The shoulders were much too wide for me, so I ended up narrowing them by about an inch. I was close to getting the second sleeve's cuff sewn & finished when I realized I'd spend the last several minutes trying to iron with an iron I'd forgotten to plug in! :/
At that point I decided that for my own personal safety, perhaps I was a bit too tired to actually continue sewing any further. :)
So the shirt has one sleeve in, and one that I still need to finish the cuff and attach it to the shirt. Then I have a crapload of buttonholes to make (11 to be exact), and an equal number of buttons to sew on before I can say the shirt is totally done.
But today, I get to finish my quilt!! :D I'm a little worried that my backing fabric isn't big enough... but I have enough extra fabric that I can give it a border or something to make it bigger. I'm excited about how it's going to turn out! :D
