And what a great excuse to sew, sew, sew. <br /><br />And I'm sad for you that your little guy is going. Boo-hoo. He's so sweet and I remember my son at that age.

Nice to have an all-expenses paid vacation, even if it is with work folk. Hopefully you like them. LOL. <br />I can relate with the daughter and grandson moving out. My turn will come soon enough that my daughter and granddaughter will move out. How empty the house will feel when that happens. Especially since we've bonded so tightly with them, right? Kind of like losing your right arm. It's hard for others to really empathize unless they've been there. Thinking of you and hoping I can get back into the sewing rhythym this year. I'm working on it!Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01707191774233379510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-86623961009823915692011-01-23T14:00:42.999-05:002011-01-23T14:00:42.999-05:00Have a productive weekend!

How fun!<br /><br />My son is working 2nd shift along with 2 of his friends. So he hangs out there. I asked him Friday if he still lives with us... He said "uh no". I asked when he was going to tell us. He said "uh tomorrow..." LOL! I told him that I love him but he really needs to get his stuff out of his room. I have plans... HA! It is very hard to be the sideline coach, but it is the nature of life. He is adorable, though. I am very sure you will miss his greeting each day.Jodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11409545931151554046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-44164094992049654892011-01-23T11:19:24.348-05:002011-01-23T11:19:24.348-05:00Your last week has been very eventful!

My co...Aww sorry to hear your lil one is moving. <br /><br />My concern about wearability is a major concern after I make a garment. I always try to make sure I have enough ease to allow mobility and endure, like you 10-12 hrs of wear.<br /><br />I remember when I made a pair of pants and my first zipper installation. Wore the pants to work and half-way through the day the zipper broke...ugggh. Thank goodness I had a jacket on, but that wardrobe malfunction traumatized me.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03688900287732221253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-70183651922877606122011-01-22T23:10:49.608-05:002011-01-22T23:10:49.608-05:00Wow, your life has had some changes.

My two little nephew buddies will be here later.<br />Tucked in! That's great! Hasn't been an option for me for awhile. I like the follow up reports on your pictures. The fact you have to make post finale repairs makes me feel more average as opposed to a nerdy loser.
