Well today I'm of to work at the Alexon womanswear outlet at K village, my Sunday job. Extra income ya know. Not much but I get to play with clothes all day. I plan on wearing the new pants from that divine details pattern, they're not brilliant but they'll do. Meanwhile we gathered brambles & they are going to be turned into jelly, & checked the sloes out for when we make sloe gin, looks like a good crop again this year, better start buying the gin next week.
Some sewing, crafting, dreams & everyday happenings of a life lived on the edge of the Lake District. Where there's good food & sheep!

4th September
The usual dog walking! Mans XXXL tee restyled to fit me a few years ago, with the words "Teach a man how to fish & you get rid of him for a whole weekend" Poop bag carrier. Oh how sad...........
Sooty the cat got in the pic too. White cat - Sooty? Blame the previous owners.
Customer support at Wildginger.com is brilliant. I now have a working copy of the Curves program. Just need to input the measurements all over again as the back up file has my older, bigger numbers in it!

Today update
Well I've no photo for today at this point in time but I am wearing a top I drafted in PMB a couple of years ago based on one I saw in a Burda magazine. I have been trying to reload programs on the laptop which crashed a couple of days ago. So far only one won't go back on because the disc is cracked & I'm not happy as that is my Wildginger Curves program - my tees drafting marvel. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Mary I do so agree about what seeing what we really wear on a daily basis. I'm in danger of being seen as very boring before long!!

Self Stitched September.......
This isn't going to be so easy. However yesterday & the day before I did manage it but boy do I need to do something about my dog walking gear. If nothing else I will need to sew some replacement clothes sooner rather than later!!
Blackpool Zoo on the 1st was lovely & warm. I didn't manage to look very glam but I was comfortable. Hand drafted skirt from several years ago, can't see the A-symetric hem, & top from I think Simplicity pattern that I can't find.

2nd Sept. Dog walking gear doesn't vary much but serves it's purpose for now!!! Burda WoF magazine waistcoat from years ago that I customised with hidden zippered pockets as part of a travel wardrobe muslin. I made another that I preferred actually that might show up later in the month. PMCurves drafted Tee that fit well a few years back, worn a lot & dreadful pattern & colours!! Whatever was I thinking? I was thinking it was cheap & cheerful for a muslin.
As for today, will have to wait for a photographer.
