Snow go slow


We still have snow, enough to annoy but not enough to be trapped in the house. So I joined a new gym and had planned to start going this week but with the icy roads Ive still to get there, instead Ive been working on my week 3 of project run and play, boys week, I decided I was going to kill two sew along's with one item and I'm using a pattern from the new Burda sewing book which Ive scaled down to fit Oz and will post it up in the Burda comp. Its a version of the Frank button down shirt and to be Frank (sorry) its been a pain in the bum! I think partly its been due to my own confidence (or lack thereof ), the parts done look fab but Ive still got sleeves, which I'm doubting and thinking of chopping in half to make short sleeves and turn it into a more Hawaiian shirt style, probably more wearable for a 10 year old plus I miss out those pesky looking cuffs or is that just an excuse not to attempt them? Plus the Collar to get done and photographed and blogged and shared. I would wonder were the time went this week but I'm afraid Ive been the self crowned queen of procrastination. One thing I did do though was at last get a photo of the teddy ear hat, I think it only took me three months, now to just get it listed in the Etsy shop.
