I'm not missing....promise


Actually Im buried under an avalanche of body parts.  I am grateful I got a wonderful order for 10 'memory bears'. The garments arrived Friday afternoon, so I have been deconstucting clothing to use for fabric in between my son's basketball games. (it's tournament time). I have actually managed to make very good progress. (contorting to pat myself on the back....dont look it's not pretty)

Almost all the parts are stitched, I still have 3 heads to sew. (eww that sounds a bit a gruesome), but I had to quit for the evening. I'm half blind, and evening light is not sufficient to sew with. Which I find a bit depressing, really. Not the blind part, the fact that I'm on a roll and I had to stop. I have very good sewing skills, but I dont want to rip out any wrong seams from trying to go by feel if I dont have too. I'm already a vision of loveliness in the mornings, no sense in adding to my morning aura with a bunch of blue language, and facial tics from ripping out seams.
