Had to take a week off.
Aug. 14th, 2012 07:31 pmI didn't realize how burnt out I was from Costume College. Or how much it really did upset me that my Teens dress was such an epic fail. Despite wonderful comments made about the outfits I brought. From asking how I got such a smooth fit on the Sleeping Beauty bodice to asking what pattern I used on my bathing suit (seriously like 7 people asked me that, someone needs to make a pattern it's in demand,) and letting them know that I drafted/draped it myself, I still feel like I suck as a costumer. I couldn't talk myself out of the funk because work has been giving us overtime almost every other day and the heat/humidity has been horridly high so I am not getting any sleep in a house that reaches 90 degrees.
But today I was able to put away some fabric and supplies from the mad pre-costume college sewing and regroup my thoughts a little about what I want/need to do sewing wise and didn't feel like just crying. I think I am going to work on some UFOs and ease myself back in. For now the bad dress makes for a comfy Little Man bed. Or at least he thinks so. One he is done with it I will toss it. When I do attempt it again I plan to start from scratch.
