I just realized how sad my other posts look without pictures. So here's a shot of me gazing into the future and reading the words that you're seeing here. Nah, I'm just thinking about cookies, fried chicken and hot sauce. I had two of the three for lunch today. Guess which?!
Last night I sewed the bases for both purses and fully completed the front panels, buttons and all. High five!! I even had time to choose the tie flap (which will be sewed to the back panel) and cut out the fabric for the back panels, too. I'm working hard to get back on track to finish up everything by my goal date of August 21st.
As I mentioned, my next project will be to complete a stained glass piece that I started back in April of last year, and promptly abandoned one month later in May. There were two main reasons that I put the project on hiatus. A handful of the pieces are extremely complex to cut, and at the time I was not successful in scoring and breaking those pieces properly. I quickly exhausted my glass supply on mistakes. Also, my bunny Moe developed a habit of running and jumping on to my kitchen table where I was working. Twice, he skidded onto the table and sent glass pieces a'flyin and a'breakin. But I can't stay mad at my fluffybuns. How could you stay mad at this?
This glass project cannot be rushed: But when it comes time to do so, I will set a goal date. I have run into a little snag so far: Two of the colors that need are currently out of stock, and they cannot be placed on back order. I'm not sure how this will affect the piece, or my ability to reach my goal. But I guess we'll see when I start it up again!
