Long time no see :-)
Well, it has been nearly twelve months since I have posted anything here - in line with not doing any projects since that time :-)
I had a lot of stuff happen in the 'real world' so haven't been doing much else. I am starting to feel motivated again and taking a new lease on life in general. I have lots of projects in the back of my mind but of course it's 'only two weeks to Festival' so I need to get cracking!
I have a family history project I am working on to get as much info together as possible before my dad goes to visit his brother on the 9th February. My uncle is very ill with cancer so this has to take priority!
I haven't made myself any new dresses for years so have decided that I need to re-focus and this may encourage me to do more :-) I have decided Cotehardie's are still my favourite (and my husband's) so I am going to make some new ones. I have been inspired by some pictures and websites and have a stack of beautiful buttons I bought at Festival last year that would be fantastic for sleeves! I also have some gorgeous brocade that I can use on the lower sleeves :-) First things first though, I need some chemises! Anyone have any good sources for easy to make chemises that will sit nicely under a cotehardie?
Coffee break over, back to work!
