I am glad started early on the striped blouse! As we get closer to April life gets very busy. But I have finished the sleeves and belt/hem. Several more hook and eyes need to be added at the belt and collar and threads need to be trimmed and that's it!
The next challenge from
is "#7 Accessorize - due April 8. Accessories add polish to your outfits, helping to create the perfect historical look. This challenge is all about bringing an outfit together. Trim a bonnet, paint a fan, crochet an evening bag, sew a shawl, or dye and decorate a pair of shoes to create the perfect period accessory for yourself." I am planning to redo my Edwardian purse.
Perfect timing for this challenge..... I will try to get it done early, a painting workshop is coming up the first weekend of April and the 2nd weekend is our famous garden outing, a trip to Annie's Annuals!
We are all loaded with gift certificates and the vans will be ready to be loaded with garden treasures!
But, I do have to get ready for the workshop, and I need to have my list ready for Annie's!
After that I will be obligated to plant all those treasures!!! The shopping is so much fun and the garden results are so beautiful......the actual planting is not my favorite thing but I will have to get on it!
Then Ardenwood will be opening for the season. I will be so thankful I did all this sewing this winter and I will have a new wardrobe to wear. And, it made winter go by soooo fast!
