Hounded


Hounded

I’ve arrived in North Carolina… finally! So happy and excited, my plans are working out! Thank you Lord! I have gotten all moved in and mostly unpacked. With the help of family, I got most of the furniture where I want it and have begun working. Sewing is still part-time as I adjust to my living and working conditions here. I think this is going to be an exciting opportunity. That’s my optimism speaking and getting carried away. I am also exhausted from moving but I find the time one Saturday morning to find the local fabric store and get to sewing.

My mom and I visited Mary Jo’s and chose this black and white cotton hound’s-tooth. I was so eager beaver to get in my happy place; I forgot to jot down what pattern it was. As you can see this pleated front sheath dress is almost done. I measured the hem line and ironed it flat so all I have to do is sew it in place. I can’t wait to try it on.
