Remember those photos of the Red Cross button corset I promised a couple of years ago?
No? No wonder. I do, though, believe it or not, and I'll try to accomplish better ones at some point too.
There has been a certain amount of grumbling from the senior generations in my local scene - my age and upwards - for several years now that there is no interest from the younger generation in joining the organization of existing clubs, or ( Read more... ) -
Making amends
I want to get my act together and start posting more regularly again. This is nothing special, I haven't got much sewing done this summer other than a few projects for other people that needed finishing, so there is nothing new and nothing exciting to show so far.

I have vague plans to photograph them tomorrow. Other than that there's entirely too much confusing, irritating and ( Read more... ) -
When it rains, it pours
