Did I do okay? Part two… and a quick Cardi for the cold office!
I am going to try it again. Like always, if you don’t like it the first time, keep trying until you are happy with the results. I traced my first pattern in my lifetime here. It was good, but not great. So I try again, this time with tracing paper from the art section of…

My first “up cycle”?
My sister’s co-worker is traveling to Mexico very soon to avoid our rainy winter – the rain just goes on and on and on… She asked my sister if I would be willing to sew her “tankini” for her before she leaves. Sure, I love a new project! What we have here is her tankini top…

Did I do okay?
Ever since my first sewing project with a purchased pattern, I have been cutting out all my pattern pieces to my size. When I gained weight, I threw out all my old patterns that were cut out to a size too small, and eventually replaced them with new patterns which I cut out to my…
