Submissions ---Plaid---

For last week's "Friday's Favorites" we had one sale! Congratulations Vegancraftastic!!!

The clown pants I'm making are coming along nicely, I think. The front is done with the pockets, and now I'm going to start on the back pockets.

The whole thing is a blue plaid, with red and gold accents. And I think there's enough material to make a vest when I'm done.

Since I'm doing the plaid thing right now, tomorrow's "Friday's Favorites" will be all about the plaid. Let's see what you've got! Post the link to your plaid items in the comments and check back tomorrow for the Friday's Favorites!

Me and my Big Mouth

So as if I don't have enough projects going on...

My boyfriend came home yesterday complaining that his clown costume doesn't fit anymore (yes, I'm dating a clown), and he needs to find someone to make him a new one.

...this is where the big mouth part comes in...

I say, "Well, I can make you one."

He says, "But baby, you don't know how to sew!"

...this of course clinches the deal, and lays down a challenge for me...

I say, "Just because you haven't seen me sew, doesn't mean I can't do it!"

...This is true, I can sew, but I haven't in a reeeally long time. I do have a nice sewing machine though...

So off we went to JoAnn's last night, picked out a pattern and material. He, of course, had alterations he wanted me to make to the pattern (Yikes!), and now I'm all set to go.

Of course I'm have two custom orders to be done, and lots of busy work that needs doing....sigh...me and my big mouth.
