A verse to ponder today...

“Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.” -Luke 9:23-24 Listen to chapter

Sew WHAT???? 0

I have FAILED, yet again, to reach my destination(AKA accomplish my goals, finish my TO DO list, you get the picture....)!  I had BIG plans yesterday. I did----I REALLY did!!  I did get a lot accomplished yesterday( well for ME anyways)  But when it came down to the one thing I wanted to do MOST of all......it didn't happen:(   sigh....lifting handkercheif to wipe away single tear....
Last night was for sewing.  I Planned for it . I looked through my patterns.  I went through my "stash"  It was something Quick& Easy. It was gonna be GREAT!


I got STARTED:



This is a plus size skirt that was part of a gifting. The elastic waistband was ShoT. Can't eBay it. Rayon Fabric. Gr8 summer print = Material 4 ME =  Dresses for ME & GOOSE . Whooohoo








I cut up the skirt  and measured out for the top of my dress. The material for the top is the same Turquise material I used in my last dress.  I  cut  out the top and played the PIN YOURSELF game......
 I even DID a little sewing work on it.
I am aiming for an empire style halter dress for me. Not absolutely sure about the one for Goose, though. Depending on my energy level it could be a pillowcase dress.....or something with a pinafore

 And

That is were it ENDED! Sad DaFeet....
Not that I've quit the dress, you understand? But that is were my brain & my Body QUIT on ME!
I keep looking at this "project" just laying around on my dining table. Maybe after church tomorrow.....
( we will pretend for now that I won't be exhausted after the service.....PLS don't tell on me:)


 I hope that YOU had better "luck" when it came to YOUR Fri. night plans!   

 Praying you have a Restful & Rejuvenating  Sunday,

  3. I'm with Debbie, I think it's great that you can sew! I wish I was as good at it as you.

    I know how it feels to not done stuff done right away, but you can still get it done! I know it can be hard, but try not to get discouraged :-)
