I’m drinking tea, eating tim tams, and sewing a pair of pants. I have just discovered that a pattern which works for thin, stretchy knits may not be quite so comfortable when rendered in a heavier fabric. The next pair I make will be cut a little more generously. I’m also going to change the waistband design, which is one of the only pieces still unchanged from the Burda pattern I started with. I have yet to figure out what the original designer had in mind, and my version has come out wrong every time I’ve tried to execute it.
My sister MJ is flying in from New York tonight; she’ll be here for the weekend. Time to go pick her up from the airport.
Mars! Maybe its not the fabric… Maybe you’re just… getting somewhat more heavy – like the fabric that doesn’t stretch that well :)
Anyway, I was wondering about tonight’s party. Its taken off the nwtekno page. Is it still happening?? I’d need the address. I have ralleyed a few of my Hippos, too. Let me know soon.
