Fall Sewing: The Initial Plan

Hello guys!! How are ya?? Ok, yesterday I was working on this skirt....The sewing gods were SO against me.....

• I broke the needle on my machine.
• I could NOT get the needle out, the screw was WAY too tight.
• My "muscle" was at work.
• I decided to go ahead and serge the edges.....
• THE NEEDLE FELL OUT OF MY SERGER LOL

So I decided to put it up and go knit lol. Flair is coming along very well. I will post a pic update after next lol.

So here is a list of what I PLAN to sew for myself for the fall. This list is more for me than you, but I'll share! LOL. List is subject to change at any given time. And I will probably add and delete until I am finished and ready to sew for spring/summer lol...with that being said...let's roll.....

Oh man, you are making me crazy with all these great patterns. If I ever make the time for doing some clothes sewing I'm going give you all the credit. Can't wait to see these unfold.

[Adriann]

I bet you have a closet to Die For!!! I can't wait to see your creations!

[erica b.]

I knew I shouldn't have looked! LOL I add S3800 to my list too. It may work better for the grey 2-way stretch knit I bought today than the butterick pattern.

[Tany]

Great picks! I can't wait to see your Fall creations!

[toya]

WOW!

[Jude]

You best get that needle back in woman!! You are going to be one busy seamstress, but I love all the patterns you have chosen! :)

[Stacey_CrimsonPurl]

Dang yeah! It really wasn't meant for you to sew yesterday!

I am liking your fall/winter selections!

[Gorgeous Things]

I love everything you selected! And boy, can I sympathize with your 'sewing-gods-got-something-against-me' adventures. That happened to me recently, and I ended up throwing the whole beast into the trash!

[Julie]

Thanks for sharing your pattern choices for fall and winter! They all look cute! I had to add a couple to my shopping list for the next pattern sale. Have a great day!

[~gkw]

Don't forget my shirt!! My birthday's in November!!

[pajnstl]

ROFLMAO @ that last line!

[Jackie]

WOW! I like all of your choices. Some of which I have or will purchase soon. Can't wait to see all the completed garments.

[Michelle]

Phew! You are going to be busy!!!!

[Bev Love]

Okay your pattern stash looks like my yarn stash. And do you have fabric stashed for your sewing projects??? You are going to be busy lady.

[gold]

The sewing machine and serger?Yes it was telling you to put sewing down for today!!
Loving all your patterns,but really loving the vogue 7975 I am going to have to copy you on that pattern!!

[Christy]

My my, you are ambitious. I can't wait to see how they turn out!

[cheryl]

Holy Cow!! You are officially INSANE!!! (But seriously that is some great looking stuff! Can't wait to see the finished products!)

[stephaniestephanie]

looking forward to seeing how Flair is going. I'm working on getting gauge right now. I'm using the blue sky alpacca dyed cotton in olive and it looks like size 7's are going to work. I'm still debating what size to make though. How do you think the size is looking? I'm so bad about picking the wrong size and making things too big when I knit.

[Maria]

Amazing! You are making me wish I knew how to sew. You always make me feel that way actually. LOL. Loved all your choices here!

[sheila]

Great choices, especially the outerwear patterns.

[Tamara]

Wow! You have a lot of sewing plans. What fun! The white eyelet shirt is on my list to sew this week. I bought some great fabric for it this weekend. Hopefully it will turn out as good as in my head.

[Dana]

Finally- someone with more projects in queue than me :) Good luck!

[Cassandra]

Pretty ambitious of you! I love them all! I can't wait to see what you complete!

[Kammie-The Candle Girl]

*LOL*....you are so funny! As I told oyu you have INSPIRED me to learn to sew.....reviewing your patterns--you have listed almost every one of the patterns I have bought to make! Man, we have great taste! hehehe

I even made a dress for my 19mth old niece including a mathcing little bandana to wear on her hair!

Happy Sewing!

[mara]

please tell me when you plan to sleep.
there's no way that you sleep.
do you eat?!
:)

[Creole Wisdom]

Oh my gosh. YOU are so darn savvy I don't even know what to say. These are wonderful plans. I am thrilled to see what you come up with.

You are a regular Martha!

PS- I want that first dress! What a cute pattern.

Go on' with your domestic self!

[Carolyn]

You have some great patterns there! Can't wait to see what fabric gets paired with them and what they become!
