Sewing FO: Cortland Trench
It’s been a busy few weeks in my world. A sewing weekend with my friends, a quick trip to Indianapolis and teaching Cat Lady Crop, Ingrid Sweater, and Galloway classes!
So much going on and so little time dedicated to documenting what I’ve been up to. Here’s a look at what I worked on over my sewing weekend:
Clockwise from Top Right:
The women I go on this Sewing Weekend with use our time there differently. Sometimes it’s a focused weekend on one large project, other times it’s trying to maximize the floor space to get a lot of fabric cutting done. I have used my last two weekends in this “maximize” mindset, which gives me garments that are 90% complete at the end. In this case, I didn’t have the right buttons for my projects and needed to complete everything at home.
So I’ve slowly been working on the finishing of a few of these items:
