Hello

There has been a lot of sewing happening around here. Two dresses (!!!) in a week kind of sewing. Throw in a pieced quilt back which was then basted to a top that I contributed to, but didn't assemble. And now, the quilting of that project. It feels good to be productive and especially in the studio, which by nature of its location on the 3rd floor, is much, much warmer than the rest of the house. I think I could stay up there indefinitely. Winter, I want to break up with you.

I know I keep mentioning this back log of Erin-sewn clothes that need blogging and still have yet to do anything about it. The sun is supposed to make an appearance tomorrow so I think I will just throw each one on the dress form and take some beauty shots. If I have a good hair day and feel up to it (under the weather here, with one kid sick, too), I might even set up the tripod with the remote and get some on-the-body shots. And then I will blog them, one by one as I feel like it. That seems like a plan. The point being, that I need a plan. The second point being that an onset of clothing posts is going to happen soon. You've been forewarned.

I hate it when it gets quiet in this space. I miss it. I miss you, the conversation, the community. For whatever reason, the longer I let it sit, the harder it is to get going again. Also, it's strange, but it seems like I have less time to blog than I used to. That can't really be the case so I am trying to look into my work patterns and see what else has changed. I'm not sure what is so different. But really, I just need to jump in so that is what I am doing. Again.
