Jalie Patterns

So, I did manage to actually SEW and FINISH something!  YAY me! lol

I finished Jalie 3132. It's one of their new top patterns that just came out.  I didn't use the nursing view, so I don't know how good it is.  However, I think the regular view is just great!  I think the front pocket is a touch too small, but that can be fixed if I make this again.


Now that that's done, i'm moving on to Jalie 3130.

I was able to get the pattern traced, the one adjustment I made to the armhole done and the pattern cut, all in one day.  So i'm making good time with this one.  I might actually get to cutting some fabric before the nigth is through.

FNSI The results.

I'll tell you, I have to give a lot of you ladies credit for the work some of you do.  You go to work all day, come home and take care of a family and then STILL crank out projects like crazy.  Me, I clean my kitchen so I can have a nice area to cut fabric with, and i'm pretty much finished.

I did somehow mange to get Jalie 3132 cut.  I even managed to get the kangaroo pocket finished.  Then I was done, it was time to clean up.  However, that's progress, and I might get the top done within the next week or so.

I do have to say to my credit though. I've pretty stressed the last few weeks, and that could explain the tiredness.   Hopefully that's going to clear up here real soon, and I can get back to sewing.  There are TONS of things I would like to get to.

Friday Night Sew In is Tonight

http://craftyvegasmom.blogspot.com/2011/10/friday-night-sew-in-signups-102111.html

The October FNSI is tonight.

I'll be working on Jalie 3132.  Which is one of just many great new Jalie patterns.  I traced the pattern last night while sort of watching Project Runway (what a SUCK season!).

That is all.

Happy sewing!
