So many things to write about, but none of them I find important enough for a whole blog entry. So I thought, why not combine them into one? It is, after all, MY blog;)
First of all, I've opened a Twitter account (@moramorasew), fully dedicated to my sewing activities. Mainly because I don't necessarily want my boss or other colleagues to read my blog or see what I have to say about #fabricshopping (though if they stop by: hello!), but also because I don't want to mix up things too much. Now I can just look at that twitterfeed if I want to know about new patterns or nice inspirational projects of other sewsocialists or sewcialists (words I just learned), and at the other for work or news related stuff. I also put a twitter feed on my blog sidebar!
Second, I have to say something about fall/autumn (I like both words and I never remember what the US and what the UK one is). I found out I really like this time of the year! Snuggling up on the couch under a blanket, eating pumpkin soup, tea, being able to wear running tights. Rediscovering all my pairs of boots, yay! And it feels so legit to stay inside to sew. Haha! Also, NYC during autumn is such a good prospect...
Third, a new project. I already mentioned that I wanted to sew a coat. I've found a really cool Burdastyle pattern, the 9-2012 #103, a trenchcoat with raglan sleeves. I will alter it slightly, as it's a size 36 and too long for my 1.61m. I already spend a weekend printing, taping, tracing and cutting the pattern pieces, and the fabric that I ordered Sunday arrived today! So no more time wasted on blogging, I'm going to get started NOW! I will update you through tweets!
