Spent most of the day sewing yest. Had to add something to the red outfit I planned to wear Wednesday night so I made this simple panel skirt to wear with the red harems& bra/belt set.
almost have the pants for HS finished. about another 1-2 hours should do that. I'll post a photo of them when they are actually finished. (cream)
then I really REALLY have to make a decision about the colour and fabric for the over skirt. I spent about 1/2 hr sketching out and doing the math for it just now. Had to get up way too early and send hubby out the door to work.
I'm hoping once I get the pants finished I can bring larger samples of fabric into the store with me to help me choose the colours. The biggest problem is ... choosing the colour. I want something that looks good with my colouring. Which is Red. Red or burgundy. always good colours for me. Chocolate would be a good choice with the pants. Pale pink might work but I'll need to see a larger colour sample. I rarely wear either colour so no idea if they look good on me. Ideally I'd have someone go with me to help choose the colour but...the problems with that... either I don't trust this person's judgement, or that person isn't available. AND all you LJ friends are just too far away to make a quick run to the fabric store with me!
And then I still have to figure out the top. *groan*
What day is this?
How many more weeks do I have? (October 25) I still have to nail the choreo. As much as I love the song - I can't just go up there and wing it.
But I really have to set the music for the Wednesday night gig. omg Why does it feel like time is just whooshing through my fingers...

I'm actually heading over to my mom's with a ton of fabric now... who knows. I had to put makeup on - 'cause all the colours (even red) looked bad today.
I'll get the pics posted asap (tonight)
