Yes, I am still sewing. And yes, I owe you a ton of pictures.
For the last few months I have been working on several mending/minor alteration projects for friends. And by several I mean several trash bags full (friends and family bulk rate special). Many people don’t like mending projects (and they will charge you by the piece) but I really don’t mind them. I find that I learn a lot about construction flaws when I do repair work. I also like finding creative ways to save garments. Patching holes, replacing closures, etc…
In between these projects I did manage to squeeze in some sundresses, a costume, and a jacket.
