Almost here...

Old school details

Satin liners
Darts and tucks

Velvet ribbons on the ease
An old hemmer foot
Peek ruffle
And the Goddess...
She is almost here

Oh. My. God. You work fast. And it looks really good so far. I was just telling someone few minutes ago at how I'm a domestic goddess, with all my cooking, cleaning, and organizing. But I can't do two things because I've not attempted them for some reason: garden and sew. And I really need to learn to hem pants.

Ex...cellent

Now we must think of the perfect venue worthy of her debut.
Any suggestions out there?

Thank you ladies! Although I suspect that I have not appeased the Goddess and she is now in need of appeasement...like service. Before I need a venue, I need a screwdriver :)

Sara - got your email - I will respond to you shortly!

There is only one venue that would be truly suitable for the debut of something so beautiful. The Green Mill.

Anon.... alas I know of no one who goes Jumpin at the Green Mill....have always wanted to go.

Amy - why yes it certainly is. It's a Singer 503A. How do you like your Viking?

I got a good deal on my singer too... ebay of course :) Getting it tuned up though I just found out will cost me more than I paid for the darned thing. Have you taken your Viking anywhere for tuning? (I couldn't get the link to work, btw!)

I also have quite a set of patterns going on that I need to make real - but have never tried a quilt. If I had a serger though...I'd be quilting everything in sight.

That's a nice machine! Is it portable?

In place of a serger I have used fray check...I tend to like futsy fabrics. You know I have never cleaned my machine. Mom looked at it on easter to try and figure out the problem. She pulled out the sewing machine version of belly button lint...!

Some machines are portable, with a carrying case et al. Actually I have one but it needs to be rewired - it's very cool :) You know, until my mom opened the machine and showed me where the lint hid - I had noooo idea of all the places I needed to clean! Glad I know now, I mean, after calling around for quotes, I realized I might be in the wrong business!
