Random Thoughts

• I checked the blog today and couldn't believe it has been almost a month since I last posted
• That also means its been about a month since I've sewn anything!
• I've traveled to New Orleans (5 days - work), London, Ontario (2 days - work), St. John's, Newfoundland (8 days - vacation) and Kingston, ON (4 days - work) this month
• That is 19 days away from home
• Plus I hosted Thanksgiving dinner, and had company for the long weekend
• I'm home this weekend 
• With no plans
• Other than to sew  
• And maybe do laundry (but who needs clean clothes when you can just make new ones?)
• I broke my fabric-fast and bought a ton of fabric from Fabricland in Belleville earlier this week on my travels home from Kingston
• I popped in, "just to see what they had that may have been different from my local Fabricland"
• It turns out there was a lot that was different
• Mostly because I've been avoiding going into the fabric store in an attempt to not buy fabric and use my stash
• They had sweater knits that I just couldn't resist
• It was snowing out (!!) so I justified the purchase because I needed to stay warm
• And Christmas is coming
• I bought only sweater knits in a variety of colours and weights but mostly grey and black and cream
• Because those colours are sophisticated
• And what my youngest daughter wears  
• And two brushed flannel plaids for button-down shirts
• Cream with red and cream with forest green
• I bought them with thoughts of making them for my daughter, but now I may want to keep them one
• I have plans for the Sew Over It Molly Dress, Mia Jeans and Pussy Bow Blouse and some sort of jean jacket this weekend.
• And maybe a sweater or two
• And a pair of Hudson pants
• Something tells me I won't get all of that done, but it's nice to dream plan
• This was my backyard this morning:

• I'm thinking it's almost time to put the motorcycle away for the winter
• And bunker down in the sewing room with the flannels and the sweater knits

What are you sewing this weekend?
