But knowing my body type and potential fit issue (or feeling stifled in the bodice) I decided to take the easy way out, and make something I will get a lot of wear out of.

He only weighs 2lbs, 14oz. He's still in the NICU in New Orleans but I think his mom would like some clothes that fit him. I cannot lift anything nor do much of anything except sew, knit, read or watch TV until August. It's a good thing that I have lots to sew.Marty's Little Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06008495069826265706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-6129292630496284812012-05-27T00:02:00.982-04:002012-05-27T00:02:00.982-04:00I agree!

Then, I will be putting together a charity quilt for someone who needs to be comforted as they heal or are in hospice.

Mines will be an abbreviation of yours because I plan to spend Monday with my family. But to make up for it, I took Tuesday off. Lol Now that I'm finished with the prom dresses, my mind is free to think about other projects. So I hope you have an enjoyable time in your sewing room.
