dreamling | Sewing like a madwoman

I've been sewing like a madwoman for the SCA event this weekend, Over at mom's at night, when she can help/supervise me. Man, do I need a lot of help. Still, I really enjoy costume sewing, and can't wait to see this all come together. And it is! Practically all the pieces are cut out, we were lucky that Jan was over last night, she's a good family friend that is a seamstress, and knew how we should alter the vest to fit, and how to take the darts out of the design.

My goal is mostly to have a passable SCA outfit that I can throw on, and be comfortable in. I think it's going to be cute too. Plus, the excitement of having something I made!

Still I think I'm going awful slow, hopefully in the future I'll be a bit faster at it. Happy to finally be using the sewing machine my mom gave me for Christmas a couple years ago, I just couldn't get to it in the office. It runs like a dream, winds bobbins beautifully, and is just plain fun to use.

I can't wait to get the outfit done though, I'm afraid I might miss drawing night with

Plus, I got to figure out some money stuff, talked to some creditors, and they're all willing to help me out while I'm unemployed, moving some payments back and such. So much better to talk to them, and get credit stuff up to date, instead of ignoring them and allowing it all to go to pot.
