My Very Own Style in Woven and a New Video

Before I forget, I want to show you this link to Glenda's article on fixing your sleeve.  I had never seen it, so I am assuming a lot of other SFD'ers have not seen it either.  (You will have to cut and paste the link.  Sorry.)

And I finished my latest Joy Style today.  It is in the washer for the second time around because the chalk wheel marks I made for the buttonholes and buttons did NOT come out even after soaking them in Shout and some other spot remover.  Goodness!  Some of that chalk is really hard to remove.  I rubbed those marks so hard, my fingers were burning, and they STILL persisted!

I made a video for you -- chalk marks and all -- with a dart pointing up to my chin which has since been fixed.  It is SO NICE to know how to fix things when I am sewing.  As careful as I am in drawing those darts, they never seem to come out exactly right.  My apexes seem to move when I'm asleep or something!

Here is the video:

And I can't "linger longer" as my daughter explained to me was a line in one of the romance novels she used to read.

I'm getting off my feet and on my bed.

I really like my new assymmetrical neckline, color-blocked blouse.  I should have taken a still of it.  Didn't think of it until now.  I may try another one that buttons all the way up and down.

Back to the drawing board.

Fortunately, I can do that on my bed!

Be back soon!

Hugs, Joy
