I'm a bad blogger. Of course, I knew this before I started this blog (by no means the first blog I've started). I tend to get excited about it, make a plan to post tons, and then after a while forget completely. Maybe I should aim a little lower and try to post...once a month? It's better than once a year ;)

I'm also a bad seamstress. In that I'm really bad at finishing projects (sense a pattern here?). I get excited about it, make big plans, then when it doesn't quite work out...you get the idea ;) That's what happened with the red fabric I posted a photo of before. I had hoped to make it into a dress but realised half way through that there wasn't enough fabric for a skirt. It would still make a very pretty top, but then I got into trouble with the sleeves and now it's been in the (sizeable) "half-finished projects" pile for quite a number of months. I need to dig that thing out and finish it!

I'm also a bad photographer. In that I never remember to take photos. Well, it doesn't help that I don't have a proper camera! But I have finished some other projects since the last time I posted. The biggest one was a made-to-measure dress for my sister:

Being modelled here by a knitted bunny and one of my kitties :) It turned out really well and I was quite proud of myself for actually finishing something properly! She wore this to a wedding with a Vivien of Holloway petticoat, which makes me so jealous I could cry :( But I won't - I'll just steal it off her sometime. Isn't that what sisters are for??

I did also make some cute little hair clips to go with the dress:

So there you go - I think this counts as a post! Perhaps I won't give up on my teeny weeny blog just yet :) Maybe I'll also work on the photo-taking and project-finishing...that'll be the day!!
