New Year and new ideas

I don't know about any one else but I find it difficult to rein in my ideas. I have too many ideas and then have trouble starting any, certainly a weakness however not a total disaster, too many ideas is a better option than none at all.

This January I have time . I'm on holidays and I'm not going away.  Potentially a great start, and then a tear  in my meniscus puts me out of action. Now I'm on the mend and I can walk, sewing can begin or continue.

I have a dress underway but for my MAGM project  I want to copy this T-shirt.
I saw this a few years ago and love the trim around the neck. I am going to copy this idea with these trims. The grey fabric I had in my stash and I bought it from the The Fabric Store.


So for the pattern for the T shirt  will be Ebony T shirt from Closet case patterns.

To try and keep the idea of sewing outfits  rather than just pieces I am going to make pants, Style Arc Luna Stretch Pant
 I am using one of these fabrics . One is a cotton stretch and the other is fabric from Style Arc 

They are quite close in colour.  They are more orange than the image indicates. 
I am looking forward to sewing time.

Happy Creating!

Just Do it!

Can't wait to start. I need to work out a plan for my summer wardrobe. The weather has been hot and humid and I seem to be lacking cool comfortable dresses and tops.
 A bit scary a whole year without purchasing clothes but if you don't try you will never succeed.
