sleep, sew, watch DVD's
Jun. 20th, 2008 07:37 amso I've been sleeping and sewing.
I finished the choreography for my advanced class and ran through it with them on Wednesday - now we have 3 more weeks to polish.
The sewing project.... I decided to try again with the halter style bra- replacing the neck strap with elastic. Covered it over with this cool random grey&black burn out fabric - over a black base bra. Looks pretty decent. Love the line of the open back - HATE the pressure on the neck. I also made a matching little skirt/swish - I don't know why I do that with the neck strap. Sure it looks cool but - Couldn't wear it for any length of time. I am going to leave it as is - since it is more or less finished. It needs a jewel or dangly bit in the centre but... I can't decide on a teardrop rhinestone or a former silver earring. When completed it will be a good outfit for dress up teaching nights.
I've also been watching videos - Sarah Skinner's veil - picked up some useful stuff I want to try.
2/3rds of Secrets of the Stage 2, don't know that it is really as useful to me as #1 was.
2/3rds of Belladonna's Sword. Cool - but it makes me want a gorgeous new sword rather than the skinny short one I borrowed from my mentor.
I'm still sleeping a lot. but I don't have the stomach pains/intestinal distress that seems to be going along with it for other people. I can handle sleeping too much. Going to send DH off to work and see if I can catch another hour or two of ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ's
