<chuckle> Well, if its an archaeological dig that you're wanting...
hmmm...on top...
my green resist dye dashiki whose fraying seam allowances need work
new black pants for shortening
old black & tans striped pants for waist elastic
deep red shirt with loads of braid from a friend's trip to Greece to be
disasembled & cut down 2 sizes - without disturbing the braid!
a VERY odd black leatherette cropped jacket which Dear Hubby spotted in
a second hand shop& INSISTED I must buy if it fit, "that's part of some
costume, I know it, and you'll never find anything like it when you need
it" despite my policy of "NO NEW PROJECTS! Tanjd@mmit!" and his policy
of "No conventions, I want to do other vacations for a while!". So, why
do I need a costume piece I have NO glimmer of an inspiration for? To
go to the bottom of an at least 15 outfit list, for destinations that we
won't be going to for at least 5 years? <sigh>
and finally, Dear Hubby's pirate costume shirt from last Halloween,
whose cuff & buttons never got done when my buttonhole feature
revolted. (Praise the holy name of the saint who invented safety pins!)
Do the dozen knitted scarves in the basket in the laundry room count?
They are the almost completed summer stash reduction project. How about
the basket full of clothes awaiting their dyebath? I gotta find a
grocery store with NONiodized salt for the dyebath. Pounds and Pounds
of it.!
And I have cleared at least 1 square meter of sewing room floor this
last week!!!
Back to my mending!
