Well, I was fabric shopping yesterday and I bought some nice things. First I bought a beautiful forest green lace and charmeuse to make a dress for the holidays. I also found a winter print and camel suede cloth to make some separates. I'll be designing most of the day today since it's raining out and is a great day to stay inside. Honestly, I could stay inside a fabric store all day. My mind wanders and I wish I could just snap my fingers and have all these wonderful creations done. I'm hoping to have a chance to go to Manhattan and check out the new innovative fabrics next week.
I could actually live on 40Th street.
Happy sewing!

Happy November everyone!
I finished my Daughter's costume and it came out great. She said she wore it several times over the weekend. Feathers are still in tact. Lol. But anyway, it's time for me to start on another project. I spent most of the day yesterday looking at my fabrics and trying to get inspiration. Did you ever have so many ideas that you just get overwhelmed and then don't know where to begin? Well, that was me yesterday. I started out wanting to make my daughter some clothes, because I love sewing for others, but then I thought I should really be making some things for myself. By the end of the day I was just altering some of my own clothes that were too big on me to get them out of the way. Today is another day and hopefully I will make a decision.
