May 2013 End of the Month Round Up

I honestly can't believe that it's June 3rd already! This year is flying by! I'm sure some of it has to do with the fact that I'm finally happy with my job and of course you know the rest just falls into place after that. My sewing is in a really good place and I'm creating some amazing pieces.

Right now if I'm not at work, I'm in my sewing workshop and that's how I like it. I've finally reached a stage in my life where I can sew any time I want, using the best materials I can afford. I've been waiting for this time in my life since I was a teenager and fell in love with this craft.

But enough about that, this is suppose to be my monthly recap...it was a good month creatively. I added two dresses to my wardrobe.


The lace & print dress



...and the digital ponte printed dress

I also added one more trans seasonal black suit (which will probably get a lot of wear this summer!)




Finally there was the prom dress...



Yes, it was a very involved sewing month...but so full of creative goodness that I hope I can match it in the next couple of months...though I can tell you that I do have another huge project coming up at the end of the summer...more details on that later!



The only thing I didn't get a chance to make this month was a couple of outfits for my granddaughter.  I'm chomping at the bit to make something for my little cutie...hopefully soon!


...as always more later!
