I will be going to the annual fall sewing retreat a week from tomorrow. At the camping lodge Thurs. afternoon through Sun. afternoon Oct. 16-19.
Preliminary plans for projects to take:
1) Tshirt -- I cut out the pieces in June but decided the fabric was too hot for a summer top, and deliberately set it aside to sew at this retreat.
2) Reversible apron -- uses cotton print fat quarters, instructions from a tv show. Need to enlarge the pattern diagram and cut out the pieces.
3) Simple jersey knit jacket -- class project that I stopped in the middle, need to find the bag where I stashed it and see how much is left to do.
4) Learn to make gloves -- on the list for a couple years, so I am determined to get to it this year.
5) Crochet dish cloths -- for pick-up work as a break from the sewing machine.
That should give me enough variety to choose what to play with based on time of day, how many interruptions, daylight vs. artificial light, etc.
