Just dropping some pictures of my current work-in-progress! I am making the Fever Bodice from George & Ginger Patterns with this amazing ponte from Boho Fabrics.

​This is my toile since I have never made this pattern before and I measured a size smaller than usual. I'm also experimenting with adding some plastic boning, which I have never used before.

I'm adding this to my "To Make" list, though I will have to come back to it when I finish the Glam Goth Pinspiration I am currently working on. 

I have been using Canva to create "Vision Boards" of outfits I want to make. I found the overall look for this outfit on Pinterest, then went through the patterns and fabric I already have to come up with the elements to pull it together.

I gave my website's home page a makeover and it is much more 'me' than the grid style I had before. It was a lot of work and there is still a lot more to do. With my renewed interest in keeping tracking of my makes here, I'm also realizing that I stopped adding projects about a year ago. That leaves a lot of makes to catalog. In the meantime, you can at least see most of them via my home page and I will continue working on getting their details recorded in the 'Makes' section.

I stumbled across Indie-Pattern.com when I was searching for a new pattern. Currently everything is 70%. With most PDF patterns regularly $10, that puts many at $3!

​This picture shows that I have cut out the leg panels and attached the pockets with fabric glue. Tomorrow I will sew on the pockets and hopefully sew the legs together. I am considering  adding a strip of the black fabric down the outside of each leg.

​I finally finished some more of the curtains for my craft room. There are 11 windows in this room! This set of 6 panels plus the others I finished previously leaves me with three windows to cover. 

​My current book. It has been a very slow read and it reads…weird. Each chapter is from a specific character’s perspective. They are short chapters, so I am going to try reading instead of scrolling when I need a break from work today.

I finished this book. It was pretty slow 3/4 of the way through, which was a lot of somewhat boring reading to get to the last few chapters that were really good. I went ahead and ordered the two other books in the series and am taking a break from reading until they arrive.

I have the honor of accepting an award from my boss in front of my peers at work. Of course I put together a vision board of the outfit I want to wear! The overall look is drawn from the outfit Kristy at George & Ginger Patterns made - the October Cloak and wide-legged pants.​

I will be making the October Cloak with a black glitter stretch velvet from Boho Fabrics. For the pants, I will do the wide-legged version of the Restore pants from Greenstyle Patterns with a sequined jersey knit from Amanda's Bundles. ​
