a bit of action today

did some more work on my swap item, it's not quite finished yet but not much work left on it (side seams and hems i think). i was really happy with the way the zip turned out though i had to shorten it and reinforced the bottom and forgot you'd be able to see all my stitching on teh outside. i had problems with the neck yet again and am not happy with it but am not changing it as i don't know how and am already overdue with it :(

mum came over today and had a look at the jacquard fabric and it's just so crookedly cut (about 12cm difference between left and right sides) that i can't get my jacket out of it :( :( so i'm going to use it to make this skirt which should be easy to take in as i lose weight.



and she helped me cut my fabric to sell on. i'm so happy with the quality of these fabrics, as well as the price, just such good value :)

more sewing tonight maybe (G's aunt and cousin are here) or definitely tomorrow...
