Charlene's Sewing Adventure: No Sewing Today!
http://charlenesa.blogspot.com/2011/02/no-sewing-today.html
A jounery into learning and masterning new sewing techniques, custom fitting, tailoring and engaging in the art of creativity. Tuesday, February 1, 2011. I haven't sewn much since my last post, not by choice. My upper back is still bothering me. I think it's from spending to much time at the sewing machine and reading. I need to find a way to elevate my machine a little higher. I tried lowering my chair but that's not enough. Any suggestions, anyone! I find this book to be very interesting. So, I dow...

http://charlenesa.blogspot.com/2011/01/how-i-sew.html
A jounery into learning and masterning new sewing techniques, custom fitting, tailoring and engaging in the art of creativity. Wednesday, January 5, 2011. I don't have a dedicated sewing room but I do have somewhere to sew. I started out in my guest bedroom which is located on the second level of my home. The stairs were causing me problems. I found myself having to go up and down them to often, although its great exercise, my knees begun to hurt and it didn't seem normal. New Orleans, LA.

McCall's 2094, View C - My First Project on my blog! I was working on a blouse. Here is my completed blouse based upon my high bust measurement. The contest rules were that you had to show a new technique that you learned. This picture shows a flat fell technique that I was going to entering as "something new" that I have learned.

Greener Beginnings: August 2011
http://greenerbeginnings.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 28, 2011. Coraline and I experienced our first protest last month. Without getting into too many details, my beloved Alma Mater, Peace College, which has a 154 year history of being a women's school has decided to change the name of the school and become co-educational. I am very disappointed in the direction the college will be taking and feel very misled by the Board of Trustees. She's got her red rose ready. Here is a picture from the N&O- I'm in there, but my head is turned away. Super...

Sew Fashioned!!!: Early projects
http://sewfashioned.blogspot.com/2007/12/early-projects.html
A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous Coco Chanel. December 3, 2007. I realized this weekend that I need more space but since that's not an option, I need to get rid of some items. Deciding to purchase a one-bedroom condo was probably not such a good idea. especially since the idea of letting go of clothes, shoes, and purses (even if I haven't worn/used them in years) gives me pause. That way I'll be able to save money (dog clothing can be pretty pricey) and practice sewing (yay)! I never did ...

The Creative Jones: The apron that wasn't
http://thecreativejones.blogspot.com/2008/07/apron-that-wasnt.html
A chronicle of my creativity. Tuesday, July 8, 2008. The apron that wasn't. Well I did it again! No, I didn't. So since I could not get it together again this year, what I have decided to do is to go ahead and make the apron now and then just put it away until the next 4th of July. So look for this apron next year, because I will be wearing it on July 4th, 2009! Labels: 4th of July apron. You arent alone in this, LOL! I cant tell you how many holiday projects I dont get to until after the holiday!

A chronicle of my creativity. Monday, June 30, 2008. First comes the Tops. I have way too many patterns to even attempt to try such a feat. The second top I made is New Look 6753. View C. I bought this fabric back in March I think during PR weekend. Links to this post. Tuesday, June 24, 2008. I decided to make a dress that I can wear to work, since I made a dress that is just for the weekends. "It's so easy" Simplicity pattern 3724. Links to this post. Sunday, June 22, 2008. It's been a while. The truth ...
