Sorry to hear A/C problems are keeping you from it.<br /><br />We don't have (and rarely wish for) A/C, but all my sewing projects are at a stage where next I have to press something. It's sunny and warm today, and just too steamy in my sewing room to plug in the iron.<br /><br />Which explains why I'm at the computer (cooler spot) catching up on sewing blogs...Venus de Hilohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00424101811517659566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-61747270139995200632010-05-31T16:55:04.990-04:002010-05-31T16:55:04.990-04:00So sorry to hear that!!!!

I have similar grand plans for sewing this weekend. I managed to get some work-suitable t-shirts and one more pair of pants made. And I still need to work on cleaning.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05782386414185682598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-55493585519647611482010-05-31T12:50:39.525-04:002010-05-31T12:50:39.525-04:00Love how the dress is coming along.

Hope your A/C problems get sorted soon. Here in London almost nobody has A/C in their homes, which usually doesn't matter much but when we do have the occasional heatwave it is really quite horrible at home!Eugeniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07584571701550775408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-59675212939787433532010-05-31T05:29:28.774-04:002010-05-31T05:29:28.774-04:00The dress look so good, can't wait to see you ...The dress look so good, can't wait to see you try it on!

I love it even more now. It might be almost winter here in the subtropics, but today was still too hot to be out in the sun, so I understand about the weather and no aircondititioning. After the unbelievably hot and ridiculously humid summer we've just had, I'm seriously considering installing airconditioning next year. Hope yours is back in action by now.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11274649006496918800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-57635712305220798252010-05-30T23:09:26.355-04:002010-05-30T23:09:26.355-04:00I understand, we went through 6 days without waiti...I understand, we went through 6 days without waiting for the part to come in and the weather was only in the 80's then.
