Trench Coat: Base
I am going to be making some changes with my blog. I’m going in a different direction with it. I will still talk sewing as I just love to sew but it’s hard to keep it interesting as I don’t get to sew as much as I like. Having young kids, a husband and pets keeps me so busy. So, my blog will be different.
I’ve finished the base part of my jacket. I have to stitch the bottom part of my coat on. I think this coat is going to look good. I do have a beef with the pattern company though. If a company is going to sell patterns, review the pattern BEFORE you sell it. Some of the pattern pieces do not have marked grain lines and no notches. WTH? But other than that it seems to be a good fit.

I’ve also been working on making some headbands for my dd. Thanks to KC Quilts for her tutorial I was able to make these. I’ll post some photos of my headbands later.
Project Runway Canada has been good. I’m glad the french gal has been booted off. Her attitude irritated me and she definitely deserved to get the boot after her lack of listening to the opera singer’s requests. I am sad to see Carlie go. She is an extremely talented designer who just made a wrong decision with her last creation. But, I think she will do well. If you want to read blogs of the contestants, etc. go here.
Christmas is coming and I’m just pumped. I just love the decorations.
