5 miles

not a great day but I did something

I only walked out the remainder of steps I had to reach 10,000. But I did that in the dark with Ranger so that should count.

I want to finish the top tomorrow and hope the repair/patch to the front works.

This is my next project. I love these jeans. I love them so much I put the pattern on tag. I have made several pairs but then stopped wearing then when I had gained weight. But now that I am down 21 lbs I started wearing them again and I want to make more.

sewing report

this is a pattern from a book, the kind that has minimal insructions- vague sizing info and tear out sheets you trace the pattern from. Agg. You can see how it was supposed to look in the drawing.

But this is how it looks when done - about 7" of open space in the middle. So, I made a panel and sewed extra lace on top of it. It will cover the opening and hopefully look cute.

 I like the style but if I make it again I will make major fixes to the pattern.

this is what I am working on now

it is a job for a client. I am making a pattern and a tech pack for this bear.  They had it in production out of state and the factory lost the pattern. They had some things they thought was the pattern but after I made them, we realized they were wrong. I ended up having to take the only sample apart and make a proto from it.  Amost done.
