Rebirth

Well, I'm back.  Not sure anyone's still around, but I thought I'd start up again as my sewing is ramping up and I need some accountability . . .

I disappeared for the last year and a half due to this little guy:
Yep, I procreated again.  It was the pregnancy from hell, but now that he's here (and 8 months old) things have settled down again.

Anyway, onwards and upwards, I have been stalking sewing blogs and artisan's square gaining inspiration, and I am jumping in with both feet to do a 6PAC (see info here, I'm doing a winter 6PAC cause I live in NZ).  I am in desperate need of work clothes, I am finally at a happy weight (15 pounds below my pre-baby weight) and nothing fits.

My plan is as follows:
All of the fabrics are out of my stash, which has grown considerably as I seem to have much more time for fabric shopping than for sewing.  I am headed to a sewing retreat this weekend, and hope to get muslins for the skirts and dress bodice stitched up.
