Catching up to the Clock

I've been less than faithful about my journaling lately. Blame DST for part of it....those dratted morning people are interfering with my whole schedule. I mean what kind of plan is that?? Let's go to bed wide awake and get up extra early?? (they didn't give me a vote obviously)

I have been working in my sewing room just not blogging it! One b*ra finished and while not my prettiest work it fits. That's always a good thing. I put together a SWAP board but I'm rethinking my colors....I have some great new Jalie patterns (and a TS from the expo) I haven't traced off yet. I really need to work on some casual coordinates. And summer is coming....good shorts pattern must be found.

Current brainstorm is for Easter. I have some pretty blue/taupe/ivory floral sheer that I want to make a skirt (TS Skirt Wardrobe view A or B) http://www.textilestudiopatterns.com/patterns/SkirtWardrobe1103.html
with an ivory lining and enough left to do a shell in the lining and a shirt of the sheer. (TS scoop neck tank and KS 2952) The shell redraft is in the works.....no way I can do it without a dart so I'm having to draft one.....

I did the zoo thing Saturda with the kids. More on that tomorrow!
