We’re officially one week into Frocktober… and I’m wearing pants. Unfortunately I have to travel for a family funeral, and spending the next 24 hours in a dress just doesn’t seem optimal. I’ll tack on an extra couple days into November to make up for it.
In happier news, I am more than halfway to my fundraising goal! My donation page is showing $1,050 total against my target of $2,000. Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far! The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund is a fantastic organisation and every dollar helps.
My sewing is necessarily going to have to pause while I’m away, but I did make more progress. I finished sticking together the shirtdress pattern and cut out my size. I also started sewing together my bias cut Hawaiian dress. I managed to get the bodice complete, as well as the front of the skirt. (Note that the ruching along the front is temporary via some basting threads. It’ll look better when it’s properly finished.)
And with that, I’m off!
