Here it is two weeks since I started working on this website and blog! The summer is arriving and I am inspired by the crop of spring flowers.Those are my business cards in the background. As well you might be able to spot my printer! It is great to be able to work from home.

Today was a good day even though it rained.
My mother brought me some irises and my daughter won a prize at school for Integrity and I got some work done on my websites. My child is counting down the days for school to finish and I can't wait either..this summer is going to be good!
Voila! The vest project I have been working on is complete! The first image shows how the jacket is lined with contrasting fabrics and the hand made buttonholes. The middle image shows the back view of the vest jacket with belt buckle sewn up and patchwork on upper back. The third image shows the final view folded a bit and buttoned u. I hope my client loves this as much as Ido! I certainly had fun putting this together.
Today was the big trip to Fabricland...pretty much out of town in the land of big box complexes. There is nowhere local where I can pattern shop but the trip was fruitful. Got 2 patterns and some pretty fabric —see right picture—to make a dress. On the left is fabric I will use to sew a vest for my friend. Can't wait to get my stitching on!
Two corners in the city could be more different. Sunny and shady, urban and suburban. Old and new. I am glad to be home after my day trip!
