Did you hear all the creaking & squeaking?


Lookie here! I sewed something that wasn't a curtain or a repair for the first time in what seems like a million years. I've dewebbed and dusted the machines & I'm off & running. My first Ottobre attempt. I've been gettting the magazine for several years now, but hadn't gotten past tracing patterns (which the kids have outgrown now & I'll have to retrace again). It was all too daunting. This is from 3/2007, number 16, the recycled dress size 80 cm. Well, none of the material here is recycled, but it is well marinated in my stash. It's for a dear friend's daughter who is turning 1 today. I felt guilty for not getting dresses made for both my neices who also recently turned one, so someone had to get something. It's freshly pressed & ready to be delivered to it's recipient.
