National Creative Frugality Week

It is totally my week. And as a special thank you to my dollar stretching, I have been rewarded with the Hancock Fabrics 50% off notion sale on Friday-Saturday. I will be roaming the store Supermarket Sweep style collecting notions which will hold me until the next sale in July or August).

So, what did I learn this past week?

  • I discovered a really cool band called Whole Wheat Bread. I saw them before the Cruiserweight show at Emo’s last Thursday.
  • I really like sleeping in. It’s been hard getting up for work before 7:20am. It’s not that I lack motivation. I just like being in my bed.
  • I taught my first sewing lesson on Saturday. One of my hot chicks
    wanted to build some skills in addition to getting some Sassy Britches.
  • Do not iron when you are a) angry and b) tired and hungry. Friday I was working in my sewing room when I was suffering from “b”. I ended up burning the fabric when I hemmed the pants. They are now a little shorter than I had intended them to be.

Projects!

  • Spinsta: I am about to embark on another Sassy Britches sew-a-thon. I have orders for 8 pairs of pants now. I also have some alterations to do.
  • Websites: nothing right now.
  • Sewing: I finished my awesome plaid pants (they are a little shorter than I planned due to accidental burnage). I am almost finished with the shirt I was making. I have redrafted my favorite pattern on pattern tracing fabric.
