So here’s what happened. I spent about 45 minutes typing a clever post about my sewing and life in general. (I was typing in word and planned on cut and pasting it.) I had to run downstairs and decided I wouldn’t bother saving the file because I’d be right back.
Downstairs I find DD (8) frantically trying to clean up a failed baking soda experiment before I found out about it. By the time I got back upstairs DS (7) was on the computer looking up pictures of tornadoes.
Me: Where’s my file?
Him: It’s gone.
Me: Did you shrink it liked I showed you yesterday?
Him: No.
Me: It’s just gone?
Him: Yes.
So you get what you get – the abbreviated version.
A sewing puzzle – my current soon to be finished project

My previous completed project (took almost two weeks to finish – ugh – not difficult just too busy).

I love everything about the vest except the length. It hits at just the wrong spot. Don’t know how/if I’ll ever try and fix that.
p.s. Check out the Sundance channel if you get it. They’ve been showing a bunch of sewing/fashion/designer documentaries including Signe Chanel of internet and youtube fame.
