Made: Kayaki Home Couture pattern #3
Ah, I sewed for the first time in 3 or 4 nights. I’ve been low on energy and distracted by playing mafia over at the SGU games forum. 
I finally finished my “practice” skirt, which turned out well enough to wear. There were some bumps in the road, and I definitely have a number of notes to type up for reference when I make my “real” version with the lovely apple corduroy. It will be interesting to compare the “practice” with the real as the fabric on the practice is heavier and thicker, and becomes the skirt style well. Whereas my apple corduroy is actually a pretty lightweight cord, and will give the skirt more drape and less form I think. I’m sure I’ll still love it though, the cord is sooo soft.
Actually, since I started this blog, I’ve made a couple more headbands, a purse from a free Ottobre pattern, a bag for my mom, and a Kayaki top or 2. I’ve got a lot to write up, it’s daunting enough that I’ve been stalling.
