Just off a big project and tidying up the sewing area. There are a few things that I need to tackle before I think about my next project.
First up, hemming a pair of pants for Papa R. Even Mama R thinks that these will have to be re-hemmed down the road since Papa R is notorious for his lack of patience when it comes to the fitting process.
I believe that in the Portuguese culture bad sewing karma will fall upon your sewing machine if you tell your kin-folk to take their alterations to the tailor. But I have to tell you it is a secret fantasy of mine. I much rather sew something from scratch than mend or alter.
That said, I really can not procraftinate any longer. This weekend will be devoted to all those mending and alteration projects that I just need to get done.
What is on your sewing table?
Happy Sewing!
