More sewing

The skirt for L got finished last night. It only took 1 yd of material, tho. The matching shirt should be done today. Then I've got to work on the shirt and pants for E and the pants for me.

We also have to get a bunch of school work done today. I forgot that The Oaks didn't have classes today so we got busy and drove down there for nothing.

Diapers are cool

My cloth diaper material came last week and I made 1 diaper. It wasn't that hard. I know I'll get better with practice.

The serger is still a pain to figure out, but I'm getting there. It is really helpful to have because it goes so much faster than the regular machine for some steps. It's just unwieldy, heavy, and hard to master.

I'm still working on the skirt for L. She didn't like the leotard I made for her. Maybe it will fit E. I mended a shirt for me and a dress for L. I've also been going through more fabric piles. That is tedious but motivating. I always feel like sewing after I've seen some of the good fabric I have. There were a couple of nights I worked on the Forever Project instead of sewing. It looks a bit better, too, with some progress.

And still more sewing

I got a terrific deal on a serger the other day. It still scares me, but I used it today. I finished up the doll dress for E (.5 yd) and a tiered skirt for H (1 yd).

I also got about half way through the same skirt for L. whew!

Off to finish the skirt now.

One shirt finished

I finished the shirt from Simp. 4206 for L. It's waaaaay to short for her so H gets it. Oh well. Maybe the skirt will fit. I need to get better at measuring sewing.

I also just finished the leotard for H. It's pretty cool looking. It took 7/8 yd just like the shirt. Another one is cut out for L.

More later.
