i'm busy busy with worky things (and learning how to do intynet stuff), so i've neglected my sewing. it's a shit, as i've an excellent new blouse on the go - gorgeous red silky stuff. not really silk, but some fancypants new fabric, which has a softer wrong side, so it feels better against your skin than regular old slick, synthetic satin. i'm working on a mandarin style blouse, opening at the centre front, with big knots and guides made from the same fabric. i'll edge it with silvery grey bias binding. shhhwweeeet. now i've just gotta get the time to set up sewing central...
