After starting and unravelling my celery socks about five times, I think I finally have the right size/pattern/etc. I am nervous that I might have made the sock too big, but that just means I will have to unravel and start a sixth time. Not that big of a deal since I love the process and want to stretch it out as long as possible since I won't be able to buy new yarn for about a month. Because...
I bought a new sewing machine. Matt got tired of me complaining about the borrowed one and threw me in the car and took me to Sears to get a new one. It should be here on Wednesday, just in time to start the challenge I came up with for myself...
After attending a theatre tech and production job fair on Saturday, I realized that my sewing skills, while very useful and perhaps even impressive for someone who is pretty much self-taught, are not quite good enough to get overhire work in a costume shop. So, I am going to use my stash of fabric and make a new project each week, trying new things to increase my knowledge and help me get an internship or job someday.
Speaking of jobs, I am looking for a fun one. Any ideas? I'm very picky.
