Things to remember

When wrestling with a lively rotary cutter ... the rotary cutter always wins. Got *two* cuticles.

I'm so lucky

I spent all of yesterday sewing the last bits for Pennsic. Yes, there are still things I could sew, but I'm *done*. So done, you could stick a fork in me (but then I'd hollar "ouch" and stab you back).

The reason I'm so lucky (and finished) is because my lovely wife [livejournal.com profile] ani_moore came over last night and played with/crafted with the girlies last night whilst I buried myself in the sewing room. Not only that she made them new chemises and put them to bed :)

When all was said and done - we put away the serger, the fabric and all the assorted bits and then got to sit outside, have a smoke and have semi-philosophical discussions. All before 11pm.

Today I have room for the other stuff on the 'to do' list, because of last night .... thank god for guardian angels.

The time is drawing near

I've been deeply buried in Pennsic preparations. There's also been some major stuff going on around here needin' to be dealt with. Needless to say I have had little to know spare time or ability to deal with much else.

I'll be checking mail and LJ at Mystic Mail whenever they get set up -- if you need me otherwise I'll have my cell phone. Now for Expandwhere to find me at Pennsic )

So, I'll be around until Friday afternoon this week, just buried up to my eyeballs in stuff.

I think it's done

The coat that is. Needs some finishing touches, but it is in one piece and no longer has pins in it.

Now I have to finish the rest of my sewing. *sigh*

Confounded

I am not particularly good at math ... I was a little better at geometry. However geometry in relation to garments and tailoring *feh*

If this post doesn't make sense, that's okay, I'm just venting a little frustration.
