Trying a new toy

Whew, what a beginning to the year! Between freelancing and a new pattern release for Figgy’s, a project contribution for Stitch Magazine in Fall this year, pink eye and severe coughs for Leona that turned into walking pneumonia in myself, I didn’t get to workout at all, sew for Leona or anything for myself. For the first time I can remember, I am sitting on unfinished projects:
- a duffle coat out of pendleton blanket wool with leather sleeves
- two quilts that only lack bindings (my final contribution for QfQ)
- two ballet bags, one for L the other one for her best friend Rose
- a tapestry cushion face (a birthday present from my husband. I initially joked it would take me until Christmas to finish it, then I moved the finish date to his birthday and more realistically I’ll finish next Christmas it’s so time consuming)

I felt completely irresponsible for not having an Easter dress for L sewn, when I remembered a half finished (at least I got that one crossed off the list) dress down in my sewing cave. It only lacked elastic in the neck tunnel. That Easter morning, I went downstairs and finished it in about 5 minutes.

Oh, and what has that to do with a new toy? My brother just showed me how to use my iPad for blog publishing :) ))
