It is hard to believe that a new year is almost here. Especially more so when you go out for a walk on Christmas day and see dandelions blooming. After all this is northern Illinois and usually we have snow on the ground this time of year.
After spending the weekend before Christmas with several celebrations, Christmas weekend itself was a quiet time for my hubby and me. We spent some time on Christmas Eve at a neighbor's house celebrating with friends. Then it was midnight Mass at St Paul the Apostle Church. Once again beautiful music and surroundings to celebrate such a holy day. After sleeping in on Christmas morning we took a walk where we saw the dandelions blooming. Such a strange sight. Then we just relaxed and made some homemade pizza and watched my Packers beat his Bears. One of us was happy anyway.
I have been working on the panels with attached valances. The fabric has a trim stitched in a loop pattern. It has been a challenge matching the loops for the seams but I think it is coming along nicely. Note to self, check out fabric before quoting a price next time.
Fabric is all ordered for next client and her panels. I can't wait for it to show up. This afternoon I am meeting with a client/friend to discuss making a wedding dress for her daughter. This will be the first time making a wedding dress for a client although I have made them for my sisters, my daughter's best friend and my daughter.
I am planning the summer sewing camps and looking forward to starting back up with the after school classes. We will have two new students so that should be fun also.
