What to do on a hot summer day? Work on sewing projects . I'm trying some new fabrics and styles. Biting my fingernails LOL. Our friends' daughter is having a violin recital next month. She has asked me to play with her on the Bach Double Concerto and has requested that everyone playing in the recital wear something black on the bottom and cranberry on top. Yikes! So, having nothing like that, it was off to JoAnn's. I found a pretty embroidered black on black linen that I'm using for my skirt. It has sequins all over it, but I plan to snip them off except for an a border of about 4" down by the hem. Then I found a black fabric that looks just like silk dupioni but it's actually polyester so it's cheaper and washable :) I plan to use it for a sleeveless nursing blouse to wear under the loose over blouse... ...made from the cranberry, I found a sheer fabric with a bit of a sparkle (much less sparkle when it's just one layer like it will be when finished, than it looks like folded up in the picture.) The pattern sitting there is what I plan to do with it.
The perfect hot day activity - running through the sprinkler...
And finally, taking a well earned nap!
