Holy whirlwind of a couple of weeks! It feels so good to have had a whole weekend to do weekend-type things, followed by a casual Monday working at home and cooking soups for the week. It's pretty much the perfect fall day outside. And inside, there's a pot of black bean soup and one of butternut squash soup on the stove. Smells delightful!
I've gotten a serious sewing bug lately. Reading Mimi's blog is most likely responsible for it. It's contagious, I swear! I spent last weekend and this past weekend delving into project after project. So far, I have completed a dress and cut out another dress and pair of pants. Though my favorite of them all so far it this beautifully printed peplum top. I actually impressed myself on this one ... even if it was insanely easy!
(My suddenly-obsessed sewing self also attacked the side seams on this skirt finally. It's amazing how taking in the bottom about 2-3 inches can give a skirt a whole new appeal. This is how a pencil skirt should fit!)
