sewing plans

next up for Miss 12 is Burda 7913. Initially she was going to sew this herself but after one look at the pattern instructions, she decided to hand it on to me. I'll be making view B (but without the frilly sleeves). Miss 12 celebrates her 13th birthday while we're away which will be really exciting. But I'm also sad to think that my little baby is growing up. I'll officially be the mother of a 'teenager'... I'm sure it will be an interesting journey!

my changing shape is still playing havoc with my sewing plans. I've continued losing weight and have gone down almost 4 dress sizes. I've abandoned all thought of sewing for myself at the moment as I think that I need to rethink the direction of my wardrobe. I've been swimming and walking a lot and I finally had a personal bra fitting. All this has resulted in 'shape shifting' presenting a real challenge as my personal sewing is focussed mainly on flattering my shape. So while I'm away, I'll be pondering my current 'wardrobe dilemma'
