And Easter is on 27 April which is not bad either. When is yours? Is it like the Catholic one, next week?<BR/>Those patterns are great. Can't wait to see what you'll make!LauraLohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09450981301329994368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-52848696078825651342008-03-15T17:01:00.000-04:002008-03-15T17:01:00.000-04:00Aw, Carolyn, hang in there.

Maybe you could get in some of those little things, so you can at least feel some progress? Pretreat fabric, hem any UFO's on the bus, thread your machine with the next color, maybe do some test stitches on those cool fabrics, make garment piles with fabric, pattern, trims, buttons. We gotta make sure you don't implode, yikes!<BR/><BR/>SherryVAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-25744796737127679872008-03-15T15:18:00.000-04:002008-03-15T15:18:00.000-04:00Carolyn!

I like my early mornings, and this darkness again at the time we were seeing light is bad and has thrown me way off.<BR/>The good news in all your grumbling: your sewing mojo is back with a vengeance. Glad to see it.<BR/>Oh, I'm lovin' that third pattern. I need to go check out lanetz living again. I've got my eye on a similar pattern (sz 12 but I'll grade it up) on ebay right now.Marjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08695305834402487163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-53139094313821877582008-03-15T07:26:00.000-04:002008-03-15T07:26:00.000-04:00I love your new patterns (imagine that!) - the det...I love your new patterns (imagine that!) - the details on each one are fab! I totally agree with you on buying just for the instructions - the vintage patterns cannot be beat for amazing info. <BR/><BR/>The first one is so cute - I love the buttons and the pleat up the front. <BR/><BR/>You know I love the second one (Jackie Kennedy anyone?) - if you ever decide to part with it, keep me in mind. ;)<BR/><BR/>I have a pattern very similar to the third one and someday (she says wistfully) I may actually sew it up.<BR/><BR/>Now on to DST - I actually like it this way. By this time of year I am so desperate for sun! I'm lucky that I am done work at 2:30, so I welcome the extra light in the evening. <BR/> <BR/>Finally, how on have not already exploded and imploded? I would die if I couldn't get in some sewing every week. Girl, I feel your pain, but you'll get back in the swing of things soon enough!!Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16109120743751725861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-36414090761632643382008-03-14T23:04:00.000-04:002008-03-14T23:04:00.000-04:00I'm totally bias on the DST change.
