Time to update

I have several little sewing projects sitting and waiting to be either, drafted, cut, started and finished! I think after so much sewing and in so little time, I've lost the drive for it for a little while. Summer seems to lack drive for me. That and I need some holiday time to get bored and start it up again. Work and other things on my mind have pushed sewing far far from my mind.

Things wanting to start and finish. Some relating to future filming project:

- White muslin drawstring dress (cut and pinned)
- New set of short stays with blue lining (first 2 layers sewn)
- Riding habit in dark blue (for future project)
- Late 1840's light blue flounced skirt dress (for the heck of it using the material from that dress)
- 1850's day dress in checked indian cotton (again for the heck of it)
- Corded petticoat (for when I have too much time on my hands!)

Our director is planning another film night, this time with the directors cut and the making of. Scary!

And after forking out a rather large amount of money (and sadly digging into my usa spending money) my car is fine. The ignition coils were dying or almost dead, sending my car shuddering and being non responsive, or very slow to respond after short trips. Very irriting and stressful.

I am looking forward to moving out sooner than I anticipated. My sister and my brother in law have purchased an apartment and are waiting to hear on a job for him up north in Newcastle area. I am praying they get it as they really want and need it. And as they can't live in their new apartment due to this job, I will be nest sitting and helping to pay the mortgage. Very exciting. But it's not in concrete until we hear about his job. Cross your fingers!

I think that is all to report for the moment. Photos of sewing escapades to come as I make my projects look identifiable!
