I have finally started the sewing process for my western show shirt. I got everything cut out last week, but didn't have the chance to start sewing until today. I got the zipper in and the shoulder seams sewn together. I have forgotten how much work it is to construct clothes. I worked on it for 2 hours and that is all the farther I got. I am so happy with what I have done so far. I had to do a little happy dance over my progress and how it looks.
This past weekend I didn't get much done. I did work on finishing the Bargello quilt that I started at a class at the LQS. I'm almost done. I have one piece of the thin border left to put on and then the wide border and binding. At least it will be one more project done.
This coming weekend is going to busy. I took friday off work so that I can go to the Stallion Expo. Saturday we have a big military retirement ball to go to and Sunday I fly to Oregon for a training class. My class next week happens to be in the town next to where must sister just moved to this past year. I haven't seen her since she left on Labor Day weekend. We are both very excited that I am able to get out there for a week.
My in-laws are out in VA visiting their daughter and grandkids. I'm hoping that they have a nice time and enjoy the nice weather. It seems to be getting cold here again. At least the rain has stopped for now. This weekend was horrible. The drive back to the horses/cows is still a mess. Hopefully things will dry up soon.
When I get the shirt done I will post a picture. I'm hoping to get it done before friday because if it turns out nice then I may buy some more fabric and another pattern at the Stallion Expo.
