And yet more sewing...

The small Ital ren is looking very cute, just need to finish the bodice(1 seam & bodice edge), cartridge pleat the skirt & hem.

The boy german outfit has a skirt which needs cartridge pleating and the top that needs sewing. But it's all cut out & ready to go, skirt is together even...

I have a new italian bodice pattern (thanks to Mz S) which I haven't moved much further on at this stage. The other bits are a higher priority at the moment. So will I get a new frock or am I going to run out of time?

The sewing plans...

All the sewing did get done in time, including a few extra bits. Now, of course, I have come home all inspired and want to do more. So in between housework & grocery shopping I catalogued the fabric stash. It definitely needs using! And that way I get more storage space (theoretically). So the current plan for the rest of April and early May is another small Ital ren frock in velveteen, with bits & bobs to match, one boy German slashed & puffed outfit and something for me (as yet undecided).

Then the knitting can take over again. Having said that, I did get one side front of the blah, blah secret knitting plan finished while waiting for the car to be fixed, and have finished one ball of wool in the purple garter stitch scarf. I have even done some work on one of my ancient cross stitch UFOs....

Still a stack of things on the to do list - though the mending is up to date now!
