I now have 2, count 'em 2, completed and wearable projects. I finished the blue cami yesterday. It looks nice. Not perfect, but probably no one other than me would every know. I've worn RTW that was done worse. Unfortunely, it doesn't go with the suit, either in color or style. I may alter the neckline before I do another. Make it a little more rounded & higher. I don't mind the V, but it's too low for work or with a suit. Other change I may make is to make it about 1.5 inches longer. Otherwise, it fits well and should go much easier next time.
AND I finished the skirt!!! Hemmed it (on the machine, sorry, mom) an used a skirt hook/eye for closure, rather than a button. I may still put some lace trim on the bottom, I think that would increase wear-ablility and direct the eye away from other flaws. I have a sweater set that will go nicely. Added: I did go back and put the lace trim accross the bottom. I think it looks much better. It adds interest, it was a little bland, and hides flaws.
Kevin says his ankle looks better. I'm still worried that it's healing outside and not inside.
Been looking for a new place to live. Our TH is for sale, so we need to move on. W has a meeting with the Pres of BU tomorrow and we'll see what's next. I like the TH, but not the emptiness and starkness.
Wish I had my camera so I could post pics of the sewing achievements, but I left it with Kevin so could send me pics of his ankle. He hasn't done so, though.
